So I've ordered all my components and have listed them here. I have ordered absolutely nothing else that is not listed there. I am wondering, are there any wires or components that I need that I will need, based on that list, that I have not ordered?

Specifically, the Samsung SSD looks like it does not have a SATA cable included to connect it to the mother board. Is this correct? Would the motherboard come with any SATA cables? It's a Samsung 840 EVO 500GB SSD for a Asus P9X79 LE motherboard.

Also, would the case have everything in it do properly secure the SSD within it? Do I need to order some sort of mount for it? It is a Nanoxia Deep Silence 1.

Every motherboard I have purchased came with a couple of SATA cables, so you should be fine there, as long as it is not an open-box item. Most storage drives in a retail box come with a SATA cable too, so you may end up with more than you need.

As for mounting the SSD, it just gets screwed onto one of the 3.5" hard drive trays inside the case. The necessary screws are usually provided, either with the case or the drive, or likely both.
