Ok i've finally ordered my new HD (Seagate Barracuda7200.7 200GB SATA150 8MB Cache, 7200rpm).

Thing is my mobo doesn't support so like Mertsch said in my other topic I started about, which hard drive to buy, he recommended a specific controller

Well im getting the 2 channeled one but not too sure if this is the product im looking for so heres the link to it and tell me is it what I need.

Thx in advance for the help

this one is the right for u ...
the 2nd one is just and adapter connecting a PATA disk to SATA ... but that will cause more trouble then you want ... also it just plain stupid buying such adapter instead of a real SATA disk ...

edit ... but you may ask first if there is an SATA power connector included ... also you can give ya HDD no power ... when you need to buy a SATA power connector ... look out for a Y cable .. this will clean thngs up when you maybe get a second disk

Thx Merstch. I was actually going to get the adaptor :knife: heh.

Here's the link to the HD I ordered. Can't seem to find it saying anything about a power cable :hmm: maybe theres something I missed?

Good enough?

HDD never comes with cable ... it may be within the controller package ... since it seems to contain a data cable it realy would make me wonder if not a power cable ... but ... you can never be 100% sure

and yes the cable will du ... also its not the cheapest one if not to say quite expensive

Yea that's pretty weird to not include a power cable for the HD but oh well. Hehe I know it's a little steep :roll: but what can ya do hu.
Anyway thx for the help, again, Merstch. Looking forward to this arriving on Thursday woow.
Much appreciated :beer:

SATA Cables Always come with the MB's, BTW Silicon Image is the Best RAID/SATA Controller, as of now, OR nVIDIA RAID beats SiL RAID.
