cable requirements for WD400 SATA hd


I bought a Western Digital WD400 hard drive to add some additional storage. The price was OK ($50) but it comes without either power cable or data cable. Jameco Electronics lists both 1M and 5M SATA cables. Anyone know which would be the correct one for the WD400? Also, suggestions as to the correct power cable to order would be appreciated.

Never mind -- I think I have it figured out. And just FYI a really good place to order SATA data cables and power cables appears to be AlleyCatCables.com. Good prices and free shipping.
