Gene,
Usually when you have raid on a motherboard, you will have 4 ide connectors.
Each connector will support 2 drives hence a total of 8 drives may be hooked up.
I think what Brian was saying, was make sure the Plextor drives are on the main ide controllers and not the raid controllers. Usually the raid controllers on the motherboard are red, and the main ide connectors are blue.
also are you running ide or sata?
