SATA Drives

I just got a 120 GiG Maxtor HD…but…im a little confused about the whole installation process of it! I mean i know before there was the ATA ribbon cable and the power cable, but now there is a thinner cable that comes with it too, and my mobo has a promis raid controller, of course i have only that drive and no other, and will use it as my master (duh!) but since i bought it in bulk meaning no manual or anything else, i dont know where to find more info on it, i wanted to know if anyone has installed one of these or any SATA drive and hooked it up to work on it’s on, meaning 1 DRIVE!! cause for raid, i know you gotta have atlast 2 or more drives for it to work!

all opinions are welcome :slight_smile:
