Is there a special power cable for the SATA drive? What does it look like, will my motherboard have this?

yes, your motherboard usually comes with a special SATA power cable, but if all else fails, on most drives you can use the standard molex power cable

also, havoc, what chunk size (strip size) do you use with your raptors, or do you not use a raid 0 array?

i heard 32kb is pretty good size for small apps, but for games also
