How much HDD/SSD I can have on my Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 motherboard? I have 2 SSD drives and I would like to throw in the 3rd SSD, but I don't see more SATA cables and there is no slots to connect in motherboard. Who can explain me? So, I can connect ONLY 2 storage drives?
How much SSD can I have?

If you have that exact motherboard, then you should have enough SATA connectors on the board, you would just need more cables, which are found at any online retailer for PC parts. That board has 6 SATA ports according to Gigabyte's official site:

Cheapest SATA Cable on Newegg under $4 (shipping included)

Won't my SSD have a conflict between them if they are from different series? My two SSDs are OCZ Vertex 4, the 3rd one would be OCZ Vertex 450 series. I'm not going to connect them into RAID, would use simple sata cable to the motherboard.
