If I purchase a motherboard with RAID capabilities but only want to use the 4 IDE ports to keep my devices as masters on their own IDE ribbons, do I have to do anything special? Or will the board work with 4 independent IDE ports unless I set up the RAID feature? I have NO experience with RAID technology, so please bear with me... Also, can you suggest good boards similar to the Soyo K7S Dragon Plus? Here's a link to it...
