Hi there, i was wondering how exactly these things work before i bought one. Now i know for sure that my motherboard doesn't support SATA and i want to buy a new harddrive but i want to be prepared for the future incase i upgrade my computer so i want to get a SATA HDD. If i got a hard drive casing that uses USB 2.0, will a SATA work in the casing?

like does it go from my tower-->usb cable-->hard drive casing-->SATA interface-->hard drive ?
 
Well,you should buy an external case that supports SATA hard drives.The data transfer speed of course will be limited to USB2.
