SATA raid question

This is for Richard mostly I guess.

Can I use the SATA connectors on my MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR mobo to hook up my new SATA HDD as NOT part of a RAID array?

The little SATA RAID book that came with the mobo seems to imply that any drive hooked up to the SATA interface must automatically be designated as part of a RAID array. If true this is a bit annoying as I'll have to now also buy a SATA PCI card.

[I know I can RAID the new drive with my old IDE one (both are 120GB) as RAID 0 or RAID 1, but that isn't what I want to do]
