Hey,

My system specs are:

Antec 900
Q6600
Asus P5K Premium
620W Corsair
Asus HD Radeon 4850

Now im lookin into buying a Segate 500GB Baracudda harddrive, but I noticed on all of neweggs hardrives they say OEM ( which im guessing means it comes without cables? )

If I am correct what sort of cables do I need to connect the drive to the mobo ( or wherever they connect :P )

The drive im looking for can be found here http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148288

Also im not to sure but will that drive be compatible with my motherboard since its a 3.0? Under motherboard specs I believe it says it is but im not really sure.

Oh and while im at it whats a good cheap DVD/CDR drive?

All you need to connect it to your pc is a SATA cable and you get a bunch of them with your motherboard.

Your mobo should have come with some Sata cables.
