This question is too vague to answer fully. The number of internal hard drives is limited by the motherboard. The number of external drives is limited by USB or SATA type connection ports. Windows 7 has some limits involving what it can see over 2TB on a single drive based on partitioning methods. I am not aware of any limit of hard drives under Windows 7 specifically.

How to connect two hard drives and a dvdcdrw?

Check the motherboard. You can connect two drives to a single parallel cable. Most traditional motherboards have two IDE sockets and you can run a maximum of four drives. (one cable per socket, two drives per cable) but you need to configure the drives with jumpers as "primary" and "slave". Many of the newer motherboards have a "SATA" (Serial ATA) socket or some combination of SATA and IDE but you'd have to use a SATA drive with a SATA cable to use the SATA socket.

If your SATA controller can handle four drives (if it has four SATA ports, then presumably it can), then yes, you can use four drives.
