That motherboard doesnt support ATA it supports upto 6 SATA devices which is actually better and faster. You will need to take your DVD/RW back and ask to swap for a SATA and also make sure you buy a SATA cable and good thing is these are actually cheaper and faster. Its actually a very nice motherboard dont be disappointed. Cheers from Scott and plz vote
Your motherboard has 6 serial ATA connectors. This much smaller connector has replaced the older IDE connector.
If you google search Serial ATA IDE connector, you will find many different brands available. Below is a picture of what one looks like.
This mother board uses SATA you have 6 SATA connections for Hard drive etc.
best to buy a SATA dvd burner and move away from IDE sata is faster and not too expensive.
I hope this was useful.
