Do I need to buy SATA III cable separately? I am planning to install this drive into Dell XPS 8700

If you have a sata cable already just use that. there's no difference between regular sata cables and sata 6gb/sec cables other than the clip on the 6gb/sec cables.

Yes, you should get one blue SATA III cable. The box includes the installation kits but not the cable.

I don't think so. Your Dell XPS 8700 should have extra cable for you to install a 2nd hard drive.

From the description. "What's in the Box 840 PRO Series SSD, Samsung Smart Data Migration Software, Samsung SSD Magician software and manual CD, and quick user manual." So I believe the answer is yes. I used a cable from my new MB.

Yes. I installed TWO of these drives into my Dell 8700. Assuming you have an open hard drive (HDD) bay, you'll need a SATA cable to connect the drive to your motherboard and 2.5" mounting tray such as: Silverstone Tek 3.5-Inch to 2 X 2.5-Inch Hard Drive HDD SSD Bay Converter.

I'm not sure. I bought the SSD for my MacBook Pro, to replace the installed magnetic SATAIII drive with the SSD, so I didn't need a cable. The SSD comes without a cable, so probably you'll need one if your Dell doesn't have it. Hope that helps.

PS: I meant to also add that you should scroll down to Page 7 of 17 in the Sabrent PDF manual; the pics will show how to install the SATA drive using the port on the Sabrent HD enclosure. The old saying... a picture is worth a thousand words applies!! (<;

This is a USB3 HUB (it only "extends" USB3, NOT provide it)AND it has nothing to do with SATA so you will never need an SATA cable.It will plug into an existing USB3 socket OR comes with a 19 pin cable toconnect to a Mother Board socket or add-in card.PS: The product description leaves a lot to be desired.More pictures would be a big plus.

Just like everyone else is saying. Make sure you're comp is SATA III and you can find that out by lookin on your Motherboard, or the box it came with or an internet search

Yes, as you said little tweek required if you try to connect to sata drive to your power supply did not have. I did used adapter cable change to sata power cable i had. you can buy those adapter if you do not had, it's few dollor in the market.

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

Cable not included. Using USB3 cables from other external drives did not need it.

most of us have a ton of sata cables with our motherboard. probably, a prebuilt system won't come with them, but most prebuilds have DVD drives installed. my Asus DVD drive -- this one -- came in a sealed box, with no cable. it's not an OEM packaging.

I used a 160 GB Serial ATA (SATA) Hard Drive that I removed from an old Dell computer. It works fine.

no sir, it doesn't come with the cables. You'll need separate SATA and SATA power cables for connection.

Thank you for contacting us. Yes, you can use the existing cable if it is standard SATA. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Yes. You may need to get an extra SATA cable but they only cost around $3 a pop

3 sata cables come with the Thermaltake MAX-2533. They are good quality cables - one end of the cable has a 90degree connection as well.

Quite honestly, I don't remember. I do recall that I didn't need to order anything else, but I can't tell you whether I used sata cables that were already in the computer, sata cables that I had in stock, or if they came with sata cables.

As previous individuals stated, this drive does not come with a SATA cable, but it does include a mounting bracket/adapter and screws. I've not used it long enough to comment on performance or durability, but initial impressions are very positive.

Your motherboard should have come with SATA cables to connect the SSD to it. You should not need anything else.
