It sounds like its gonna depend on your motherboard. If your Mobo uses all the SATA connectors through a raid controlller, then you will need to install the raid controller on disk so that it knows how to use the controller, if it doesnt then yes you should be able to use it without the need of a floppy...
I have a P4P800-E and a A8N-SLI both of which you can install a drive on the sata connectors without a raid driver.
