Hey, I'm currently using the GIGABYTE GA-G31M-ES2L Motherboard (this pc is very old), and my current hard drive is failing. According to CrystalDiskInfo it currently has 36041 hours-- I'll just attach a photo:

So, I was wondering whether this SSD: Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 240GB 2.5", would be compatible with my motherboard. Yes I realize using a SSD on my PC would be terrible, I do know the specs, soon I am buying a completely new PC and I might as well get the SSD now (if I can) since my current is failing.

P.S sorry If this makes no sense... It made sense while I was writing it -.-

The SSD will work with your board, but it will be limited to SATA II speeds. Even so, it will be a noticeable improvement to your system, and you can transfer it over to your new build. Not the fastest SSD out there, but very good performance for the price.

Just to confirm, I can clone my current hard drive to my SSD (providing I have enough hard drive space), correct?
