Question Best place to buy SATA cables; what kind?

My mobo came with only one SATA cable and I need to buy another. I plan to buy a couple so I can take advantage of shipping.

Where should I buy SATA cables, and what kind should I get? I'm using 2x1.5gb/sec Samsung 200gb drives.

Please post your parts reccomendations. I'm looking into Newegg, they look pretty cheap, but I don't know what kind of cables are good quality.

just go to best buy or a local shop. im sure you can find them cheaper than newegg, since they have to include 5 buck shipping with EVERYTHING, EVEN items for 99 cents, i hate that

svc.com is my favorite for all kinds of little things. Case mods, lights, fans, cables, pretty much anything SVC has good brand names for not too much.

my personal favorite is Amphenol Cables on Demand – Network and Computer Cables. Check them out and you won't be disappointed.
