Connectors for CD ROM?

[kilcan]

I am putting together my new system and I am befuddled. With my old PC, I connected everything with IDE cables including my DVD and CD ROM drives. With my NEW system, there is a port specifically for the floppy drive, an IDE port that supports two hardrives, and then 4 sata hookups. Where do I plug the CD/DVD in? This is very confusing to me. Any help is appreciated. If it helps, I have this mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813138037

Oh adding too... the mobo came with a SATA cable and a 4 pin to SATA power cable. Where do those go?

This is my first "from teh ground up" build so bear with me

the dc drive connects to the ide port. dont mind that it says 2 Hds.

IDE channels can support any kind of drive, regardless of their labels.

You apparently had more than 2 ide drives in your rig and now have a mb that only supports 2. You will have to either use an ide card for additional channels, or substitute some sata drives for your current ide drives.
