installing 3rd internal SATA HDD when master & slave are IDE drives

[soundPCMguy]

 

I purchased a new 1 TB SATA internal HDD and am trying to add it to my

system to copy data to it.

 

I have a 2006 era Gigabyte GA-K8NSC-939, Form Factor ATX CPU Socket Type

939 motherboard. it has two SATA ports.

my primary and slave internal Harddrives are IDE drives.

I am running Windows XP SP3.

 

I am adding a new WD black caviar 1 TB SATA drive for more storage

internally today.

 

It is not being recognized.

I looked at the online WD PDF of jumper settings and cannot figure

that's it.

 

This is my first time using one of the two 150Mbps SATA ports on my

motherboard.

Must I use the SATA 0 port or SATA 1 or it doesn't matter?

 

Since the new SATA HDD did not come with a jumper is this necessary to

tell the HDD to run at 150Mbps by adding a jumper on pins 5 & 6 or not

necessary?

 

 

I'm not a extreme techie and have never messed with the BIOS before.

 

Will a motherboard always recognize a SATA HDD first and not boot from

an IDE drive?

 

My longer plan is to start adding a bunch of music to this new 1 TB SATA

drive and within 6 months probably purchase a new AMR3+ Mobo,CPU, RAM, a

new SATA 500GB boot HDD, Windows7 OS. (and get rid of the old IDE drives

completely.)

 

How do I get this new SATA drive recognized?
