Default a7v8x: use SATA RAID controller as normal controller

I was wondering, can i use the promise SATA RAID controller on my a7v8x as a
normal SATA controller? I want to connect one or two SATA drives, without
setting them up as RAID 0 or 1.

/Peter

You can do that without problems.

I wonder if anybody has come across a RAID controller that does not allow
the use of single or multiple drives in a non-RAID configuration?
