Default The GSA-4165B and GSA-4163B DVD-RAM Drive.

these two DVD-RAM drives are OEM and come with nothing but the drive itself. I want to replaced my 16x/48x Lite On DVD-ROM Black Bezel Drive, with one these two, I want to know if I need another IDE Cable, or anything else? to make this DVD-RAM Drive work on my new pc.....

I think you mean the LG gsa 4163b and gsa 4165b.The 4163b is an internal dvd drive and you can just use the ide cable that is currently connected to your other dvd drive.Im also quite sure that the other drive (4165b) is an external drive and it just clicks into a usb port.
Hope that helps

wrong! the 4165 isn't a external drive, here's a link to proof it!
