SATA 100 vs SATA 300 drive?

Asked by Spargett (5395points) November 9th, 2008

I’m looking to upgrade the hard drive in my Macbook Pro. Everymac has my model listed with a serial ATA 100 drive. Are the SATA 300 drives that I’m seeing compatible?

All SATA drives are pin compatible. If the macbook pro’s bus is not 300 mb/sec capable, then the 300 drive will revert to 100 megs. You shouldn’t have a problem…
