Default Help With DVD Burner

I Am A Computer Virgin...And I Needed A DVD Burner For My Ailing Computer. So I decided to buy one online at Newegg.com but I didnt even realize i got the OEM version. The Package came with no cords and i do not know which ones I Need.

This is the 1 I Brought: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827151161

Can Sum1 Tell Me Which Ones I Need To Buy. It Would Really Help me Out

The dvd drive is an IDE cable. If ur comp is a bit older, most likely u have an IDE inside ur comp which is connected to ur HDD. If u already have a IDE device ur going to need this:

you probably don't need anything, just use an existing power cable in your computer, which is probably available, and use an existing ide cable, which is probably available inside your machine... watch out for the dust
