The built-in 250GB disk uses the first slot. (Did you mean that you've
not got any *extra* HDs in the slots?)

The issues I had when preparing to install Squeeze (this was several
months ago, before Wheezy had been released) were adding an extra NIC
and additional memory (it's a fairly compact box!) and learning how to
partition my 3TB disks (GPT and parted rather than fdisk).

    parted /dev/sda --align optimal unit GiB print

    Model: ATA VB0250EAVER (scsi)
    Disk /dev/sda: 233GiB
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
    Partition Table: gpt

    Number  Start    End      Size     File system  Name  Flags
     1      0.00GiB  0.00GiB  0.00GiB                     bios_grub
     2      0.00GiB  20.0GiB  20.0GiB                     raid
     3      20.0GiB  233GiB   213GiB                      lvm
