Laptop sata drives - Can I connect them with a regular sata cable?

[jbuszkie]

I'm looking to replace my laptop drive with a bigger one and I'm curious to see if they have regular SATA connectors for power.  I want to run Joe's preclear script on it

to run it through it's paces...  but I don't know if I'll need any special adapters.  I know the older PATA ones had a different conenctor and I had an adapter for that.  But I haven't pulled the old one out of my laptop to check yet.

 

My guess is they have regular connectors.

 

That will also help me transfer the data to the new drive as well..
