I can't get my new 120Gb SATA HDD to work,
I have a 40Gb IDE HDD and I want to install it a 120gb Sata Extra...
At the first log on screen says to press TAB
then this message appear
"NOTICE: the number of disks is not adequate to create a raid !"

you need 2 SATA drives to make a raid configuration either in raid 0 or raid 1.

Ok I did it.. now it doensn't says to press TAB but when i got in windows xp the SATA HDD is not listed..
I'm going to check the SATA cables seems a little loose
PD:(Bios settings)
Onchip SATA: Enable or Disable--- ENABLE
Sata Mode: IDE or Raid ------ IDE
