SSD Compatiablity Question for an ASUS M3A78 AM2+ motherboard

rwayne · Jun 28, 2015

I am considering get a 64GB SSD for an ASUS M3A78 AM2+ motherboard

https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M3A78/

Per the specifications it has 6 xSATA 3 Gb/s ports.

Should any SSDs work fine with this board? Can anyone recommend one? I am not necessarily looking for the fastest thing out there. Just a good SSD at a good price.

If you're wanting to use this as your primary drive, don't get a 64GB. Right on the edge of too small.
120GB minimum, and the price isn't that much more.

120GB is fine.

Do you see any compatibility issues with this older board? I realize that I won't be able to harness the full power of the SSD but if it works it should be a lot faster than the mechanical hard drive I currently have.

It's fine. That board has multiple SATA III ports.
No worries.
