Should I get a sata or sata2 cable?

I'm about to purchase a sata2 hardrive OEM but my computer has a sata150 controller. I know Sata2 is backwards compatible but will the cable be also? I'm thinking I should go with the SATA2 cable but am not 100% thanks for your help!

SATA and SATA 2 have the same physical interface, thus, use the same cable.
