Yes you should be able to connect the third drive to the cable with your optical drive. However, make sure that you assign one of them to be master/slave (the dvd drive and your 3rd HDD). e.g. make the dvd drive the slave and the new HDD the master. You won't have to touch your existing hard drive configuration. The jumper settings for the master/slave are on the back of the drives.
