A7V600 and SATA HD

[Sgt_Zeke]

I built a new PC last night for my brother in law. I think I may have erred by ordering a Maxtor SATA 120g drive. Am I wrong in thinking that these SATA drives can only be used in pairs for raid set up? Is there a way to confiqure a single SATA HD for the primary drive or do I need to go back to an IDE drive? Also when I power up the board it seem to lose power for a split second before it goes into POST? Is this normal for this board? I am using a AMD 2.4g processor and 512 Micron 3200 mem. Thanks for any help with this.:confused:

I can find the screen it refers to in the manual to set up the SATA raid configuration but the keyboard will not function in it. It shows the drive but I can not change or set up anything. I tried a different keyboard but the same problem. This leads me to believe you must have a pair of SATA for it to work.
