i'm trying to buy a longer harddrive cable. the one that connects the hd to the mobo. wats it called again? and when i buy, like a 24' cable, is it 24' total, or 24' from connector to connector. cuz i'm haveing a problem. i need to move my hd tray to the top of my 5.25' slots, but the hd cable doesn go that high. just so u know, i have 1 hd at the bottom of the pc, and a hd rack with 1 hd at the 5.25' bays. the prob is, the rack is old, and its longer, so the farthest it can go is up to the mobo, but there is like .5' sticking out, and i need to close the door. here's some pics:

the rack is sticking out because the mobo is rite behind it. i can move the rack to the top of the bays, but the hd cable isn't long enough to connect the hd at the bottom (120 gb fixed hd) to the hd rack. help me out. does the 24' cable mean 24' in between the connectors? or in total. thanks
