GA-P35-DS3L IDE input

I am buying this mothorboard for my build:

..and right now I only have one IDE Hard Drive. Will I be able to hook up 1 IDE Hard Drive and 1 DVD drive at the same time to this board?

You can plug up to 2 devices per IDE port, so yes. You will have to check the Master/Slave jumpers on their back.

oh, I didn't know you could put a Hard Drive and a DVD Drive on the same cable.

so would I set the HD to master and the DVD to slave?

As simple as that
