Do I have to configure the raid first?

Thanks, figured it out, had to change raid to sata in the bios.

Pull out the manual for that motherboard and it will tell you how to setup the bios to recognize a single SATA drive. It's also possible that the drive must be on a particular SATA connector, 0 instead of 1, for everything to work.
I think you need drivers with a via board when use SATA, whether or not it's RAID, but I'm not sure so check the manual for that as well.
