I would like to buy a new motherboard for my computer since I'm in need of higher ram capacity. My computer is pretty old and my hard-drive is SATA I. All new motherboards I see mention that they have SATA II/ SATA III compatibility. Will my SATA I hard-drive be able to connect?

Yeah it will work. But only with the speed of SATA I.
