conect SATA 2 DRIVE TO SATA MOBO

[xyzzy]

I shipped my computer and the hd is having problems. I plan to get a new hard drive (WD 3200 ks). I have a GA-K8N Pro Motherboard with 2 sata (150) Can I use the above hard drive?and if so what cable do I use? I have a SATA 150 cable (can I use this cable?)

Yes, that should work fine. It's a 300 but will run at your motherboards 150 speed. You should also make sure you are running the latest bios.

You are right SATA II is marketing hype with the current technology.

3200 ks is an excellent harddrive, it is whisper quiet even under full load.
