The main difference is transfer speed, if you for instance a new solid state drive it a sat 1 port it will be limited in speed, still fast but not the maximum performance you could get out of it,

For a conventional Hard drive you won't notice the difference though.

All sata devices are backward compatible so theres no worries there

Will sata 2 run on sata 1?

Yes, SATA II (SATA 3 Gb/s) devices are backward compatible with SATA I (SATA 1.5 Gb/s) interfaces. This means that you can connect a SATA II hard drive or SSD to a SATA I motherboard, but the drive will operate at the lower SATA I speed. However, if you connect a SATA I drive to a SATA II interface, it will run at the SATA I speed as well.
