Are a Serial ATA data cable and power cable needed for Serial ATA?

In order to take advantage of Serial ATA (SATA), SATA data and power cables are required. These SATA cables have a new design configuration; you cannot use older 40-pin, 80-conductor IDE or regular IDE power cables with SATA hard drives as they physically do not fit the SATA devices.
