Ok what kind of cable plugs into the back of this, and where can I get a 15' long one?

My motherboard came with IDE cables but they definately dont fit in the back of it.

you cant run that type of cable for 15 ft. look at ebay for a slim usb enclosure. it'll have everything you need.

do a search with these terms:

Thank you, I found this one.

So does the drive just plug straight into the enclosure and then I run USB 2.0 from the enclosure to the PC?

Thanks again for the quick reply.

yup, that's what i have and you can have you 15 ft run....in theory. you may have to get a powered hub for that long of a run but it's worth a try w/o it first.
