another SATA question

[shimy182]

Hiya.

i have a DFI lanparty UT 250Gb mobo.
i asked my dad if he could buy me a set of HDDs with sata, and really kind of him he did.

now... he got me the faster sata compat HDDs (3gb/s) and my mobo only takes to 1.5gb/s. will it still fit?

the HDD is the HITACHI Deskstar82.3GB 7200rpm


thankyou in advance

OK .... i just plugged in the 2 HDDs. powered them both with the flatty connection next to sata port.

enabled sata drives on board but it doesnt want to work...
i set it up on board as striped, and it says healthy. on windows i can see it as 2 different drives on hardware manager but i cant partition it !!!

it doesnt come up on my computer!

help me please
