First off... thanks for the replies :)

1 and 2.NVRaid is not enabled. Everything Raid in the bios is turned
off.

And finally what does Disk Management show?

3.The Bios isn't picking up SATA3 or SATA4, so i doubt that Disk
Management will be able to see the harddrive.
I looked and whatever is in SATA3 and SATA4 is ignored.

I tried using SATA1 and SATA3 and different combinations
and nothing worked.

I am definitly starting to think that the motherboard is just faulty.
Gonna see if I can submit to ASUS and see what they say.
Thanks so much!

I also have an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium. I have 2 x 75GB WDC Raptors in a RAID
0 configuration on the NV SATA1 and SATA 2 Ports. I also have a 300GB
Seagate on NV SATA3, and a 400GB Seagate on SATA 4, both of these are
non-RAID.

In the BIOS Setup, did you configure the settings correctly from the
Advanced --> Onboard Device Configuration --> IDE Function Setup --> Serial
Port 3, 4 option to Enabled?

If you are not using RAID you can leave the Advanced --> Onboard Device
Configuration --> NVRAID Configuration --> First, Second, Third, and Fourth
SATA Master RAID options Disabled. On my own setup the First and Second
SATA Master RAID options are Enabled, and the Third and Fourth SATA Master
RAID options are Disabled.
