HDD stands for Hard Disk Drive which is what your computer stores information on.

SATA is a type of connection that powers and transmits data inside of your computer. It works in the same fashion that the older IDE/PATA standard did.

Maximum Hdd's on motherboard with 4 SATA and IDE controler?

You can only have 1 Sata HDD per Sata connector, however on IDE you can have 2 IDE, 1 set to master the other to Slave or if supported both set to CSS (Cable Select). So you can have 4 Sata HDD and 2 IDE HDD per IDE channel. One thing you need to be aware of is your Power Supply. Make sure it is capable of handling such a load or you will get write errors on the Drives. Hope that helps.

Computer won't boot says Boot Failure press any key to continue?

I have that problem too. 1st check your SATA n' power cable to HDD, okay? Then go to BIOS n' see if your HDD is being detected, yes or no? Even after that it does not show your HDD, try to put that HDD in your friends PC. If it worked then problem with wires. Replace SATA n' power cable with new one. If even in his computer it gave error than you have to buy a new HDD.
