Sure, i understand what is being said. I dont understand why all the HDD's listed in sales or wherever are always listed with the Gb/s, why do they even bother?
Because there are hard drives that only go 1.5Gbps or 3Gbps, and all three interface speeds might be on the computer side as well. You don't want to hook up a 6Gbps SSD to a 1.5Gbps SATA interface on your computer. It'd be ... limiting.
There is no such thing as "SATA III", the interface is known as SATA 6 Gb/s, which is at least honest - more than you can say about the LTO protection racket.

Or I could express my new-found disdain for whoever specced a tape library as part of a system back in 2007 and remove the warning points, but that would be rude (to you, I don't care about the LTO fanboy).
They might have done a 180 on that one, but the 6 Gb/s naming used to be strongly encouraged (corporate speak for "you pay the bills, but please do as we say"), though the spec revisions are SATA 3.x.
