Hi Sol,

I would use the two white SATA ports if possible. If you are going to install Windows 7 ( I'm not sure about Vista or Windows 8 ) then I know you won't need to add any drivers during the install process but you will need to add them using F6 for Windows XP.

Make sure the drives are the same make and capacity to avoid any possible problems.

Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
