    You will plug the SATA drives into SATA1 and the other drive into SATA2. Make sure the motherboards bios are set to use SATA as the boot source NOT IDE!

    NO!NO!NO! If you are connecting SATA drives, you must use the SATA sockets on the motherboard. The connectors are different. The SATA connectors look like this (not too good of a picture, but you should get the idea)

    That crossfire board should have SATA sockets. Check your mobo instruction manual. There should be a diagram of the board with a description of each connection/socket on that board. This is usually in the first few pages of any mobo manual.
