SATA III backward compatible?

picked up a 90gig SATA III SSD corsair from Frys on sale today with the thought of using it as a Sage server boot drive. My system is, however, SATA II only.

Anyone had problems with that concept?

If this is your drive "Corsair 90GB Force Series 3 Solid State Drive (SSD) - CSSD-F90GB3-BK "

http://www.frys.com/product/6756625#specs

COMPATIBILITY AND SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
  • SATA 3 6Gb/s
  • Backward compatible with SATA II and SATA I
  • Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, and XP; Macintosh OS X; Linux
  • 2.5" or 3.5" hard drive bay

Should be fine.

I just installed a SATA III SSD (Intel 520 series) in my Sage box this past weekend. My PC also only has SATA II ports. I had no issues. Things are noticeably faster, and my "Windows Experience Score" jumped after the upgrade.

great news - thanks. some posts here and other places make it sound like a borderline prospect.
