QuestionReplace 3 Gb/sec with 6 Gb/secI am replacing a 1 TB 7200 rpm SATA 3G (3.0 Gb/sec). This is 6 Gb/sec, will I be able to swap them out easily or will it require additional bios tweaking?
Asked 10 years ago by Laurie.
- Answer yes, you may swap them, no problem Connections & cables are interchangeable. If your computer only "uses" data @ 3 Gps....thats the highest performance you will see.You don't want to go the other way though....putting a 3gb/s drive in a 6 Gb/s machine.

Questionwill this work in a Dell Inspiron 3671
Asked 5 years ago by FredB.
- Answer Yes, it should work with that model, and any other desktop computer model the uses a 3.5" SATA hard drive. Not sure what the other repsondent is referring to, SATA hard drives do not do master and slave configuration the way older PATA hard drives did. The drive can be installed alone, or along with any other drive as long as there is room for the drive in the case, the power supply has a free SATA power connector, and the motherboard has a free SATA connector.
