Do you have a need for a 39" cable as $7 + s/h is quite expensive. You may want to check SVC out as many of their SATA cables have free shipping and cost less, but I could only find a max length of 36":

As for sata1 and sata2 cables, both should perform the same though quality of the sata2 cables may be a bit better. Quality heavily depends on the manufacturer as well.

I like the latch at both ends of the cable, is this a good brand?

I always found SVC cables to be of good quality.

Check out monoprice.com for cables too. Shipping is very reasonable

There's no such animal as SATA 1 & 2 spec. cables. They're all the same except for marketing crap in an attempt to empty your wallet a little quicker.

Some places market eSATA cables as SATA II, making it a little more confusing. There are a few differences between eSATA and SATA cables in the plug and shielding areas.

All that being said, I'm really partial to the yellow cables with latches at the SataCables site. They're definately not the cheapest but the left/right angles, clips, and flexiblity make these cables my favorites.
