I'm in the process of building my 1st 'from scratch' PC.
I think I ordered the wrong HD. I ordered Model: WD1500HLFS. This is the 3.5-inch (backplane-ready). I don't know what" backplane-ready" is but I'm wonderaing if I'll be able to connect it to my mobo using a SATA cable or will I need the 3.5-inch (SATA cable connect) version, Model: WD3000GLFS?
The WD website showing specs for the 2 models is here:

Thanks and 'Hi' everybody!
This is my first post here.
My hardware (that I already have or can afford right now) for the build is:
Xclio A380 Full Tower, Core2 Q8200, Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R, Corsair Dominator 2x2GB DDR2 1066, Corsair TX850W PSU, PNY GeForce FX5200, WD VelociRaptor WD1500HLFS 10000 RPM SATA 3.0, WD 250GB, Sony DVD RW, X-Fi extreme, WinTV-HVR1600, 22" & 32"LCD flat
