I'm planning on installing an SSD in place of my optical drive in the next few weeks. I know the Optibay exists, but I think it's ridiculously overpriced and unnecessary for a desktop.
My question is what does the SATA/power hookup on the back of the slimline optical drive look like? I haven't been able to find a picture online and I don't want to open the computer just to check it out. Will I need any sort of micro-SATA (mini-SATA? slim-SATA?) power adaptor or right angles?
If there is an option that is significantly cheaper than the optibay, please let me know.
edit: I think I need something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/1-8-16p-micro-s...ultDomain_0&hash=item3360490857#ht_1444wt_930
