800d Sata 6gb upgrade card - cables !?
Folks, I'm looking at getting an 800D case and have 4 sata 3 (6GBs) drives to go into it. It will be an asus p8p67 evo or pro thats going in too so I've enough sata 3 slots on the mobo.
Question, does the upgrade come with enough cables for all slots on the upgrade card? If not do I need straight or 90deg connectors to plug into it. Finally what length of cable would you reccomend?
Cheers
Dave

Current 800Ds are shipping with the SATA3/6Gb backplane and cables. Unless you find older stock somewhere, you won't need the upgrade kit. If you do find older stock and get the older back plane, you can get the new model from our website in the CASES/CASE ACCESSORIES area.

you would probably need to pick up a couple of right angled Sata 6 cables as I think the ASUS mobo only comes with 2 right angled & 2 straight. I have 800D and am using straight cables however have had to remove the cover (penance for having orange sleeved Sata 6 cables :D)
