I don't know whether or not there is a way to tell that (maybe with
hdparm?).
But I don't think this matters much anyway.
These days _fast_ harddisks can deliver a sustained data rate of about
60MB/s, maybe with peaks of 80MB/s. So if you want to test the speed of
SATA-II you could try to create a RAID0 array with at least 3 fast
harddisks and see whether its data rate exeeds about 150MB/s.
Well, but even with SATA-I you get 3*150MB/s rate, so you won't discover
anything...
Try looking at your dmesg, there may be info about SATA speed upon controler
detection.
