Looking for SATA cables, what does everyone think about the ones availble at monoprice.com?

I'm looking for some SATA cables, and I've come across some at Monoprice.com, good deal or am I asking for trouble? I have orderd AV cables from them before and thought they were good cables(no flashy packaging or the word "digital" written on cables that aren't).

Sheese just get em....
EWverytime somebody is going to make a purchase ya don`t need to run it by everybody else..just get em!!
 
A cable is a cable is a cable. I wouldn't worry too much about brand or specification of something that's as standardised as an SATA cable.
 
I would get SATA cables that have a 90 degree angle. They fit better and they have a locking device so it won't slip out. Makes things easier.

Lol, I don't have a window in my case otherwise I would. I was thinking about getting a locking one Boyo. The reason I had to "run" this purchase by someone is that I had been having odd errors on my main HD so I had replaced the cable with the one that came with the drive rather then the one that came with the Motherboard, I noticed that the one that came with the HD the head on it was a little larger and sturdier. After I replaced it the errors were gone. I also must mention that I notice when I use Seagate seatools to check out my drives it reports errors, but when I use chkdsk it doesn't note any, does anyone have any clue as to whats going on?
