Not only are your hard drive options expanded, the new Serillel cables are cool in more than one sense; these new Serial ATA cables are thin, discrete, and will help keep your system temperature down, even better than the sometimes problematic round cables. In addition to better cooling, Serillel ATA cables also provide for a data transfer rate of 150 Mb/s.
