Can someone explain the difference in plain english (user manual confusing me...) what the the two positions the jumper can take do. I do not want to run any raid just be able to stick both my DVD drives into them (Have adapter and cables already) so I can free up an IDE channel to stick another hard drive on. Thanks. Default is is enabled... Does that mean if I set it the other way I will be able to use SATA as an individual IDE channel w/o RAID support? Or ist it I disable it totally disables SATA?

Thanks

It disables or enables the SATA controller. To do raid you have to enter the SATA bios at startup. Similar to scsi
