I found a nice offer to buy 2 Samsung SpinPoint T166 500GB SATA2 for a good price, but since my motherboard P4S800D only supports SATA, i wonder if those harddisks has this jumper switch to make them compatible with SATA.

Tried search this board but all topics has been removed already, google dident give me any answers and i am waiting for an answer from the ccompany i am ordering from.

Regards
