If I buy a hot swap drive tray for my 5 1/2 bay that supports SATA 150 in the documents for it will it also support the newer SATA throughput speeds even though they aren't listed? Is there anything to prevent me from getting what ever speed the drive supports and the motherboard supports?
 
Yes as long as its just a physical connector and no chip in between. It there is a chip in between, for example it it acts as a port multiplier and only needs one SATA data cable, then it won't work at SATA/300.
