A7V8X w/RAID HD Question

[MX]

I am trying to hookup (2) 200GB IDE drives in a RAID 1 configuration.
From the manual, I cannot figure out how to attach the drives.
It looks like that one drive will hook to the Promise IDE connector as
a master, where does the other drive hook to?
The manual mentions serial ATA drive connectors, I have not heard of
serial drives.
I had a A7V266-E, the RAID setup is not the same. Too bad the board
croaked.

I have not powered up the computer yet, just putting it together now.
The system will be using Windows 2K for the OS.

Thanks
John

if I recall one of the drives must be connected to a SATA interface, for
which you will need an adapter , if you don't have SATA drives.
Dabs etc sell the adapters, about a tenner.
The other drive then connects to the primary.
