cheap sata cables ($2.99 shipped and up) / stuff from monoprice

I've ordered a few times from Monoprice and received my items pretty quickly. They have cheap prices and cheap shipping, but the products seem top notch in quality (I ordered some HDMI and HDMI-DVI cables a few times).

The interesting thing is not just the price, but the length. Many cases position the hard drives right next to the SATA ports on typical motherboards, so no need for the usual 12"-24" cables.
 
One downside though ... the cables at Monoprice don't have the retention latches.

Too bad as that's the first 8" 90 to 180 cable I've seen. I've seen/used 6" 180 to 180 ...
 
My Gigabyte EP35-DS3R came with 2 90 to 180 with latches. The latches are a nice touch, but I'm more worried about breaking the sata connector before having the cable just sliding off.

Ahh ... another source for goodies to add to my list, in addition to SVC, JabTech, Monoprice, etc etc.

Those are essential if you have a P5K board otherwise one of the SATA connectors is unuseable.
 
I haven't tried those specific cables but I've ordered from monoprice at least a dozen times (what? I buy a lot of cables!) and the closest I've ever come to having a complaint was the one time they took 2 full business days to ship my order. That is to say they've never disappointed and combine that with an excellent selection and some of the best prices on the net and I don't shop anywhere else for cables.
 
I've ordered from them lots of times also. In addition to cheap prices, fair shipping and great customer service, they also have cables you just can't find anywhere else. Ever try to find a 35 ft. HDMI cable ?
