    My laptop is Samsung NP530U4B-S02IN, whose specs are here:

    NP530U4B-S02IN - TECH SPECS | SAMSUNG India

    I am planning to swap the 1 TB HDD (SATA2) with 512 GB SSD (SATA3).

    But I am not sure whether the motherboard in my laptop is SATA2 or SATA3.

    Does anyone know how to find it ?

    Thanks in advance for your tips.
