QUOTE(Petai Kota Bharu @ Sep 27 2013, 03:27 PM) Then these SATA mobo is more expensive? SATA is now a common standard with all modern motherboards. Even cheaper Intel H61 boards around RM1xx is also SATA capable, but they're only SATA 2 capable. However, to fully utilize the SATA 3 capability of most modern SSDs, you're advised to at least go with boards which is also SATA 3 capable. Most B75/85 boards have SATA 3 ports.
