That cable will work. SATA drives use a different power connector than previous drives using molex connectors, so unless your power supply has SATA power connectors, you will need the adapter (which is included in the cable you've selected).
And some people do use SATA cables outside of the computer, instead of using eSATA for whatever reason (you can get panel mount SATA connectors).
