I've got a SATA2 mobo, but was thinking of buying the 60GB Agility 3, I presume it'll work fine, but is it worth buying? Would I be better of buying something different?

and am I correct that It would limited to 300mb/sec max read?

Received my Crucial M4 128 GB today. Shoved it in my laptop (with only one screw cos one wouldn't come out of my old HDD) and used the auto-flasher but it already had 0009 firmware. Installing Windows now. :D
