SATAII hard drive from Hitachi

Just purchased a new Hitachi 250GB hard drive from Newegg.com. It is SATAII which can transfer data twice the speed of SATA. As always, Hitachi delivers a super drive - completely silent, rock stabile and super fast!
Installation was sweet, just plugged it in and it was running on my Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard (which supports SATAII). However, it is necessary to use Hitachi's Feature Tool to enable SATAII (if you don't it will just act as regular SATA) but it is a cake walk to do it!
