Any SATA 3.0Gb/s hard drive will do. Older SATA 150 hard drives will work too.

So far, there are absolutely no compatibility issues with mixing generations of sata. Obviously, to get the full performance and features of sata II/3Gbs, you need a both a drive and a motherboard that support it, but if either of those is the older sata 150, your system will just run at that speed but nothing bad will happen.
