I have an Asus a7n8x Deluxe Rev2.0 motherboard. Does anyone here know for
certain whether I can just add a single SATA hard drive to this motherboard?
Or does it require two SATA drives to work?

All I see mention of in the manual is using two in a raid setup.

I assume you are using the rev2 version of the a7n8x deluxe board?

Also what bios are you using, and which version of the SATA drivers are you
using? I ask because I've read a lot of people with problems with the SATA
drives. I was thinking of getting one, but not sure yet.
