Is it possible to use both IDE and SATA at the same time?

Yes.

I don't have a SATA HD at this time and would like to know if it is ok to leave
the SATA enabled or should it be disabled?

It's ok to leave it enabled as all it will do is use some system resources saving an IRQ & a tiny bit of memory.

FWIW my HDs are SATA but the optical drives are all PATA. I believe only Plextor makes a SATA DVD burner at this time all tho I'm not sure it's worth the extra money.
