I am trying to connect two IDE drives to my new Gigabyte board for use as storage. I have one SATA drive that I use for my OS, when ever I boot up windows will recognize one IDE drive or the other but never both IDE drives with my SATA. I am plugged into SATA ports using IDE to SATA converters. I am at a loss. Is this just something that is not possible or do I not have the drives plugged into the right SATA port? or is it my settings in BIOS?

Please help
