Hey Rusty,

I'd recommend against going with rounded cables in an SFF. The reason is simply that rounded cables are a bit more bulky when you are trying to route them in an SFF box. I find the flat ribbon cables are easier to manage in my SN85G4 than the rounded IDE cables I originally started with. Also, one of the cables that goes to the Optical drive is already supplied (pre-routed) and its a combination flat/shredded cable. If you install a short IDE rounded from the front of the mobo to the back of the hard disk, it will be obstructed by the drivecage. Underneath the drive cage is a flat ribbon cable tie down that makes it quite orderly.

Hope this helps.
