ello there, I have a motherboard that says it only supports SATA drives up to 1.5gbps.

Is it compatible with this hard drive?

Yes, the drive will just operate at the slower speed

Yes, although you may need to jumper it in order for it to work. My WD320KS works fine on my Asus A8N5X without a jumper, so if your computer does not see the drive, then use the jumper ;)
