| P4P800 Delux Rev 2 I have just picked up the P4P800 D/Lux and before I installed it, I wondered how many independant hard drives it can take. I am crrently running an Abit BRD17 - Raid and I can run h/d'd on IDE Channel 1 CD and DVD burner on Channel 2, 2 different h/d's on Channel 3 and 2 more on Channel 4. There is no RAID Array, just 4 extra drives. Anyone know if this can be done on the P4P800 ? Many thank |

| Yes, that should be possible, if you run the VIA/Promise controller in IDE mode. 4xIDE Ports = 8 Devices + 2xSATA = 2 Devices(For future refference)
