HDD Advise

[Silent]

So far in my area this is the best I found: http://www.komputerkare.co.uk/itemdesc.asp?ic=HDP725050GLA360&eq=&Tp=

If my slots are sata II, would putting a non sata II HDD in damage the hdd/board?

500GB / SATA-300 / 3.5" / 7200 rpm

that drive in the link is sata 2.

sata 1 = 150
sata 2 = 300

no it won't damage your hardware. it will just run slower (at 150MB/s buffer to memory).
