SATA 3.0 w/ SATA 1.5
I have a
MSI K8N board
which supports only SATA 1.5 Gb/s.
Since this
Seagate
is a SATA 3gb/s, would i still be able to use it, just at 1.5gb/s instead of 3gb/s?
dumb question maybe, but you can never be too sure

Yes, that's exactly right.
3 in a 1.5 slot = 1.5gb/s
3 in a 3 slot = 3gb/s
1.5 in a 3 slot = 1.5gb/s
1.5 in a 1.5 slot = 1.5gb/s
