    Doens't Matter if it is SATA 2(3Gbps) or SATA 3(6Gbps).

    No HDD even maxes 60% of SATA 2 nevermind SATA 3, The VelociRaptors only go upto 150MBps.

    But to answer your question, Yes the Black is SATA 6Gbps.

    I was just wondering. If I buy my PC from you and one of my PC parts breaks/stops working (which is covered by a warranty and a part or two have 5 year warranties) then what will I need as proof and what is the procedure?
