Does this come with data cables/connectors to attach the SATA drives? If I buy this and some bare-bones drives, will I be all set?

No cables necessary-- There are mounting trays for each drive which align the drives' connectors with internal plugs.

There are no data cables/connections to worry about -- put a drive in a slide-out tray and slide it back in, the SATA data/power connections are built into each bay.

Yes. The Bay comes with 4 trays that the bare drives will fit into. They slid into the box where the connectors are permanently attached. No cables are necessary. Everything is built-in.

When you mount the drives in the trays and put the trays in, the drives will just slide into the SATA connectors. No cables needed.

The drive is a bare bones drive, so no cables included. Most people have a spare SATA connector in the computer especially if replacing an old drive. This is a great buy!

No, it is a bare bones drive. I ordered a SATA cable separately from amazon.

Yes, cables included. The only thing that wasn't included with mine was the USB to sata cable used for backing up the drive to be replaced. I easily worked around this because I have two bays in my laptop. Great buy. Totally recommended. Still no problems whatsoever!

To be honest I cant remember exactly, but I do not remeber it having any SATA cables in the box. I bought some SATA 3 cables because I did not have any and I use a full tower case. So I would buy some just in case and make sure they have the metal clips not the plastic ones.

Yes, it will have the SATA cable for data. It will not have a power cable. As another poster commented, the power supply usually comes with myriad cables.

When I purchased this it was just the drive. All other cables etc needed I either had or bought. Hope this helps.

Hi Jeffrey, This is a SATA divice with standard connectors, both Data and Power. If you have an older computer, i.e. IDE PATA, then it will NOT connect! If you are talking about mounting, then you will have to buy an adapter tray to hold it in place. Hope this helps.

Hey Jim be sure to pick up a couple 4 pin molex to sata adapters. You will need them to make extra sata conecters.

Your answer to both is yes because SATA is Serial ATA drive. Happy hunting.

Yes. I purchased this drive to replace an older internal SATA drive. There are 2 connections: 1 for the power and 1 for the data. In my case, the SATA connection fit perfectly. As I recall, there were no cables included with the drive. Note: this drive is GREAT! It performs exactly as advertised.

Yes, it comes with 3 cables and both sets of screws for both 2.5" and 3.5" Drives. To reply to one of the answers, you don't need to use both SATA power and standard power, it's either or.

nope... it only provides a mounting bracket for the drives. the drives are plugged directly to the power supply and the sata cables goes to the motherboard.

yes it comes with 4 SATA cables--2 straight on both ends, and 2 straight on 1 end, right angle on the other.

Yes, they come with SATA cables, if you need more than 2, message me I'll give you some extra freebie cables. Thanks!

It comes with a disc but you need to do firmware updates and NO it does NOT come with a SATA cable.
