MonoPrice is my favorite store for cables, adapters, etc for everything from computers to Home Theater. The quality is generally high and the price is very low.

Since a lot of you are using various SATA interfaces and drives I wanted to point out some useful reasonably priced items they carry.

Their [Link=http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10421&cs_id=1042101&p_id=2367&seq=1&format=2]3.5 Front SATA and Power panel w/SATA connector and 4 Pin Power connector[/link] for $2.89 allows you to use an external SATA enclosure that requires power and a tap into one of the motherboard's SATA heads. They have a similar one for IDE.

$17.55 for a Mobile Rack for 3.5 inch SATA HDD.

$1.19 for an 18 inch SATA cable and $1.27 for a 36 inch one.

Here is a page of SATA related items they carry.

Shipping is reasonable especially when you order multiple items.

Can anyone confirm if this external 5.25" SATA enclosure works with the LG GGW-H20L Blu-ray burner?
