Hard Drive

[Eternal-Souljah]

Buying another 250GB Sata Internal HD, will it come with a SATA cable? doesn't say, just wondering from people who have bought one.

Re: Hard Drive

i don't think it does, only motherbaords come with them, they are as little as £3 anyway.

Re: Hard Drive

If it is retail (comes in a box), then yes it should come with the cable. If OEM, then no, just the drive in a anti-static bag.

Re: Hard Drive

Yea, when I bought my HDD, it was OEM and without any cables.

Re: Hard Drive

This is why you don't see retail/boxed drives too often,

quite the price difference for a fancy box, cable, and possibly a floppy with the WD utilities on it (which you can download for free).

P.S. If you dont have any, Best Buy actually has SATA cables for sale.

Yup, a very expensive tree die for that box. And look at all the ink they wasted :laugh: , and since it has a CD and some plastic, well we all know oil prices went up, where do you think plastic comes from. :hmm:
