A:AnswerFrom your mobo tech specs, this drive is compatible, but be aware your sacrificing speed of acces (from 7200 rpm to 6400rpm) for over double the storage and WD has basic install process streamlined.
Basically not noticeable to the casual user but could be issues if used as server or storage in raid configuration (where 2 HDDs of same size are used simultaneously for storage and file share/access). If not raid, then worth the cost to loose microseconds in pc response. Unless you are a high-end professional gamer, programmer or creator using programs that cost in the thousands, you won't notice a change other than more storage space.
