Abit KA7-100 and ATA-66 IDE Controller

I just ordered a new Maxtor hd, a 30.7 7200 rmp, and it supports ATA-66. I already have a hd set as the master w/ no slave, and in the other IDE port, I have my cddrive with my burner set as the slave. Will I be able to keep these settings the same and just plug my new hd into the primary ATA-66 IDE slot? Or will I have to move my other hd to the slave to my new hd under the ATA-66 IDE slot, or under the only IDE slot? And then what about the cdrom drives? Will those be able to stay in the old IDE slots?
Thanks for any help you guys can give me.

Sorry, my mistake. I dont think that my old hd (a Seagate 17.2 gig, 5400 rpm) supports ATA-66. Currently, both the old IDE slots are used, and the 2 ATA-66 IDE slots sit empty
