Setting up DVD Drives Help

I Recently purchased a P45 Mobo with a SATA hard drive and 2 SATA dvd burners. I was wondering how i could set them up? I dont think the sata hard drive has options for master, slave, etc. At first, i couldn't get the computer to recognize either one of the dvd drives until i switched one of them to master. This worked so i tried switching the other dvd drive to master as well but it did not recognize. I then switched it to slave and again... no good.

I was wondering how i can set it up in order to have both dvd drives and the hard drive working?

Thanks
 
Err...Sata doesnt have master/slave settings...Each drive has its own cable link to the motherboard. Just plug them all in to the mobo at the same time. It should work. Go into the BIOS to be sure though. How you set one of them to master i'm not sure considering the only jumper sata drives will ever have on the back are to limit their bandwidth.
