So Thursday I go to use my DVD burner and no dice, the laser went on it. I pop an old Burner in and it works. So, I decide to bite the bullet and get a new DVD Burner.
I get a Sony/NEC Optiarc AD-7241S-0B from newegg. According to reviews all over the web, it's a good burner and it's SATA.
I purchased a 6" Black SATA connector for my Raptor and got rid of the gaudy blue one. I also bought a 24" SATA for the Sony.

I will now buy some solid sleeving and use that instead of the lone cord wrap on the bottom and move that closer to the MB.
