They come with a jumper to change from sata 300 to sata 150 or they change automatically due to chipset compatibility. See the explanation here http://www.sata-io.org/namingguidelines.asp So the answer is yes... Hope this Helps rvnguy "I know everything..I just can't remember it all Upvote 0 Downvote
