I plug my hard disk to SATA1~6 and installed OS using IDE mode but when I plug hard disk to SATA7/SATA8, it can't boot to OS properly ?

Answer
SATA7~8 is controlled by external SATA controller and default is AHCI mode, you have to change the "External SATA 6Gb/s Controller Mode to IDE mode to be able to bootup properly.
Go to bios setup >>Settings >> Advanced >> Integrated Peripherals >> External SATA 6Gb/s Controller Mode >> change to "IDE".
