SATA II backward compatible?

[Questor]

The title pretty much says it all. I am wondering if SATA II drives will work on a SATA I system (IE finding drives at a good price and buying them for future considerations).

Thanks,

Questors

yes, just use the jumper pins on the drive to force SATA-1 mode

Great, thanks a ton.
