Nobody's answering because your post is too big to bother reading.

I skimmed it, the question was if the 300GB Seagate SATA150 drive will work on the A8N SLI Deluxe, and the answer is of course it will d000000d.

Word of advice from a fellow n00b: just link to the product specs next time, like this.

The specs list SATA II support, so yes, your SATA drive will work.

No, that's not better.. do you know is this work with this? I wont follow link and have too many windows open..

Why not simply:"do you know if the a8n-sli is compatible with samsung sp2504 SATA2 hdd?"

I don't care where you'll get your stuff. If I ned info, I will either look at it myself or simply not answer...
