Yes you can run a single hard drive.

thanks, but iam now having truble of course. I am trying to run just
one sata hd on one of the sata raid ports.

ive configd the bios
ive installed the raid drivers


xp still doesnt seethe hard drive. either i need two hoard drives, or
maybe the fact that the sata hd i have (sata 2) is not compatible.

any ideas.

Thanks

The SATA controller on the ASUS A8V motherboard does NOT
recognize SATA II hard drives. There is a jumper on the hard drive
to disable that mode.

Hi,
I am looking for just this information. My motherboard is AV8 Deluxe (939
socket for amd64). There are two sata controllers: Via and Promise, the
latter being for raid.
Seagate Barracuda ST3160812AS 160Gb is not detected in the regular Sata
slot. I think it is SATAII disk so how could I disable the sata II mode?
There are no obvios jumpers on the disk. I can see four pins next to the
sata cable (right side). Is it it?
