SATA2 drives

What's the skinny on these drives. Can I switch from SATA to SATA2 on my A8N-SLI? Thanks.

nForce4 Storage:
- 4 x SATA 3Gb/s
- 2 x UltraDMA 133/100/66/33
- NVRAID : RAID0, RAID1, RAID 0+1 and JBOD span cross SATA and PATA
Silicon Image 3114R RAID controller:
- 4 x Serial ATA with RAID0, 1, 0+1, 5 (RAID 5 software patch available, no WHQL)

No SATA2 support from the motherboard from what I see, so no.

A SATA2 port is not required to operate a SATA2 HDD.

Regular SATA ports will do nicely, albeit at a theoretically slower speed.
