Changing hard drive cables

[jta009]

My Harddrive supposedly failed on me a while back and it ended up being nothing but a cable problem because I checked the connections and changed the cable and then it worked fine. Well the first cable that was on it(the one that it supposedly "failed" on) had only been on it since I first built it and that was about 3 months ago. Well was that just coincidence or am I gonna have to change a SATA cable every few months?

Sounds like a fluke to me. Don't worry about it.
