B677 (Adding HDD)

Quick question: are SATA cables not included?
I purchased a WD Black for a second drive and started excitedly installing it only to (possibly) find no way to connect it. I wish I'd known that when I purchased it. Only cables I see are those attached to the power supply.
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum, @aliengroover. There are SATA power cables that are pre-attached to the power supply, but we do not include SATA data cables with the systems. Typically when you buy a brand new motherboard, SATA cables are included, but when buying motherboards in bulk for mass production, accessories such as SATA cables, motherboard manuals and driver disks are excluded.

If you have a spare SATA data cable from an older system, it should work just fine. Alternatively, we carry a wide variety of them in-store should you need one: https://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?N=4294961055+4294822441+4294821922&sortby=pricelow.
