Hello all.

I have a laptop made from a local brand (originally it is a novatech pegatron a15he) {haven't understand exactly the brand name} with these characteristics

I found out that the chipset can support Sata 3 intel HM65 but the source of that information isn't clear about that.Also some people say that your chipset may handle SATA 3 but the sata controller is only sata 2. I am confused!!!

I would like to know if it supports Sata 3 Ggbs
and also what cpu's can take?

Thank you
