If you want the newest and fastest technology SATAII would be the way to go, but you also want to make sure that your SATA channels on the motherboard are compatible with SATAII. SATAII high as twice the burst rate compared to SATA150. If you need space and not so much performance the 300GB SATA150 would be fine. Both of these haed drives comes with a 3 year manufactors warranty.

Im thinking of going with the 300GB SATA150, since reviews for the SATAII say that there are problems with those hard drives and motherboard with the nForce 4 Ultra chipset. As i remember, the speeds havent reached SATA150 so i think it will be fine.
