Yes. Any IDE drive will work on a mb with IDE channels.

From MSI website:
On-Board IDE
An IDE controller on the VT8237 chipset provides IDE
HDD/CD-ROM with PIO, Bus Master and Ultra DMA 66/100/133 operation
modes. It can connect 4 Ultra ATA drives.
• Serial ATA/150 controller integrated in VT8237
- Up to 150MB/s transfer speed
- Can connect up to 2 Serial ATA drives
- Support RAID 0, RAID 1

I am not trying to be rude, but if you need to ask this question, you
should probably get a book on building PC's before you start fooling
around with your computer.

Good luck, have fun!
