Connecting One SATA Drive?

It may seem like a really stupid question, but is it possible to connect
only one ATA100 drive to my Abit NF7S mobo? I want to do this because my IDE
connections are becoming busy with 2 DVD drives etc. and I wanted to take my
120Gb Deskstar onto the SATA connectors. I have the adaptor cable.
I'm also using a Promise Fastrack100 with 2 Deskstar 80Gb in a Raid 0
configuration as my main system drive. Is that arrangement faster than
putting them onto the onboard SATA RAID of the NF7S?
Thanks
Iain

Nope, there is not even a doubt about it.

Ever thought of being more helpful? What are you talking about???

Put simply, is it possible to connect just one SATA drive in a Abit NF7S
mobo, or is it necessary to have 2 connected in a RAID configuration?

Apologies in advance if I have upset anyone by asking this basic question!
