So I need to add a second hard drive to my compaq model sr1130nx which has this motherboard A7V8X-LA (Kelut)
It says the mobo has two sata conectors, but I don't know if the system will just recognize the hd if I plug it in. I know I can just plug in a ide hd and it works fine but this mobo/bios is garbage. So can I just plug in the sata hd and have it work or is there more to it than that.
on a side note does anyone know why this mobo would support a 400 mhz fsb but only pc 2700 memory. thats really gay.
thanks yall
