I have a Gigabyte X58A-UD3R Rev 2.0 with BIOS FF with Yosemite. Anyone can help me what is the setup on BIOS and if I need some driver to make the Seagate Barracuda 3TB SATA works on my Yosemite? Thanks guys!

There are 4 basic settings you need to make sure of with this board:
SATA mode to AHCI
ACPI setting to S3
HPET enabled
HPET 64bit mode.

Seagate drive needs no additional drivers to make it work - just format it with Disk Utility.
 
Thanks. The only thing that I miss was: HPET 64bit mode

And the connection on the motherboard can be any of them?

Connection for what? If for SATA port for HDD, look in manual and find port labeled SATA2_0
IIRC, this is port closest to mainboard in stack of 2 on end of several toward the 24pin power connector.
Use this port for boot drive
