I have spent several hours combing threads for the answer to a hopefully simple question. Please help me.

I have a backup computer that uses an Intel DG35EC mobo. Currently it has a 1TB (slow) HD. I would like to add a SSD to this computer for the OS and use the 1TB HD for storage. I realize this board is old, I get that, but what SSD would be compatible and reliable to use? I have not kept up with SSD technology and I am afraid I will get something that is not compatible with this board..

Any help and special instructions are appreciated

Thanks.

It has 4 sata2 connectors.

So sata2 SSD's preferably, though sata3 will work just at the slower sata2 speeds.
