Technically High Sierra (10.13.x) is the highest supported macOS your system can support.

Frankly, Sierra (10.12.x) is what I recommend for people who have SATA based systems as High Sierra introduced APFS which is a very chatty file system dialog. The SATA interface doesn’t have the deeper buffers the PCIe interface offers.
