hey guys
basicly i need a little help with my HDD upgrades (currently running a single 500gb)
so im planning on running a corsair SSD about 120gb just for a boot drive
and two western digital black 2TB drives
my question is my mobo only has two sata 3 6gbs ports so one of my hard drives is going to have to use a sata 2 3gbs drive is it possible to run a sata 3 drive in a sata 2 port? and if so would is there a big difference in performance?
the drive wich will be using the sata 2 port will be using for saving real time 1080p video recorded with dxtory, dxtory files are pretty damn big
and one last thing im upgrading my drives and i want the best performance i can get a lot of what i find online seems to say the black drives are pretty good but are they the fastest? one of them will be used for installing steam aswell as all its games and non steam games and the other read above
