Hi guys I havnt put a computer together in years so Im a little rusty. I am planning on getting an ASUS M3A79-T Deluxe motherboard ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131339 ) and running one of the new phenoms coming out on the eighth. Now the motherboard specs say it has 6 SATA and 1 PATA. Now does that mean I can hook up 8 Drives at once? Or do you have to choose between PATA and SATA. if you can I want to put a DVD burner and Blue Ray burner on the PATA and have 6 1TB SATAS. Is this possible? and if so do I just plug them all in or do I have to do some kind of RAID. ( Have never done it before is why I ask. I have always assumed raid is when you try to have more HDDs than ports ). All help is greatly appreciated.
