    Yes you can.
    I´ve set up my latest system with a mix of drives.
    It has two SATA drives, two DVD drives on the second IDE connector and one Hard Drive on the primary IDE connector.
    I have the OP Sys on the first SATA drive and I just had to set the BIOS to boot from that drive rather the primary IDE drive.
    No problems.
