It makes no difference.  A 7200 rpm notebook drive will deliver a max of 70 MBps and only in burst mode - well under what half of what SATA150 supports.  SATA3G makes a performance difference only for an array of striped drives - for  any single drive there's no difference between the first and second generation SATA interfaces.
