Is there a PC tool to program a gen3 SATA harddrive to avoid a link attempt at the gen3 speed (6Gb) and always start the link negotiation at the gen2 speed (3Gb)?

Yes, this may be possible via jumper. What are the specific drives (make/model) and controllers involved?
Checking the documentation for the drives will show you the options available. I've done this in cases where 1.5Gbps SATA disks did not negotiate properly.
