Hi,

I have a 2009 Dell XPS435 with a hard drive that is getting funky.

http://www.dell.com/us/dfh/p/studio-xps-435/pd

The "WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64
MB Cache - WD10EZEX" drive at Amazon looks good.

1.  Will it work?
2.  What cable do I buy?

Here's the lspci SATA output.

Thanks,
Glenn


$ lspci | grep -i sata
00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) 4 port SATA
IDE Controller #1
00:1f.5 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) 2 port SATA
IDE Controller #2
