hi can any1 tell that is there any good motherboard which should have 4 ram slots atleast and 4 ide slots for 1 hardrive each seperately to fit in not as priamary and slave.
 
Motherboards can only have a maximum of two IDE controllers onboard. Each controller can control two devices.

The only way to change this is:
1. Get a SATA device, and use a SATA channel.
2. Get a PCI-IDE controller.

not entirely true. there are motherboards with 4 IDE channels across two controllers, however they are generally aimed at the server market. it would be cheaper to buy an ATA controller instead.

also, we can't pick a board for you without knowing the processor/socket type.
