Unless your mini pc came with extra SATA data and power cables, then you will need to buy them. Just make sure that you have somewhere to plug them into your computer before buying it. Make sure to plug the data cable into your motherboard SATA ports and plug the SATA power into your power supply.

Also, some HDD manufactures send cables with the hard drive so that might be something to check about before ordering one. If you need to order one I linked a super cheap ugly one below.

Really ugly, but [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] will work for what you want.
