Newbie question - eSATA

[firedog]

Bought an external eSATA drive to go with my Intense PC.

I understand I need a special eSATA cable (not like an internal SATA cable) to connect the drive? Is this correct?

And do I need a Male to Male cable, or some other type?

thanks

Please look for this type of eSATA connector

Gabriel-

Sorry to be a nudnik, but is this:

the same type? It's called eSATA data, male to male.

I need to know exactly what to buy b/c it isn't something I can get in a local store and I can't return it once it is bought and opened.

thanks

What do you want to connect with this cable?

You should look the other side's eSATA connecter to be able to get a proper cable
