   You wil only need to buy a cable if there is no spare socket on
your current cable.

   And a standard IDE cable will do.

   This assumes that you are not trying to put the drive on a
UDMA66/100 controller.  If you are there are two comments I would
make:  1)  Don't.   2) Make a list of what is connected to where to
see how you need to reorganise things.

    Regards,
         Harry.
