Hey good catch nospeed. Looking at the MSI page I linked to there is no mention of SATA II - you have to read to the end of the second bullet point under "On-Board IDE/SATA" ("Transfer rate is up to 300MB/s."). Obviously, this is SATA II maximum transfer rate. The same statement "Transfer rate is up to 300MB/s." is found at the bottom of the p 1-2 in the K8N Neo4 PE Manual. Funny how MSI doesn't play the SATA II support up more. Thanks for correcting my oversight.
