[help] is U-ATA backwards compatible with IDE devices?

if i have an IDE device (like a comp, or in my case an external HDD enclosure), will i be able to put in an Ultra-ATA hard drive and it will work?

i dont care if i dont get the full speed, i just need it to work at the speed of standard IDE....
