Here's a lil background which I always add to my problems/question to get a better, more direct answer. I've used up all my IDE cables that my computer comes with (2 for the HD, and 1 for the CD-RW drive), or at least the ones that fit in those slots. But now, I'm gonna buy a DVD-R but I want to leave my CD-RW connected but I'm missing an IDE cable. So I ask my brother if he knows anything that is basically an IDE extension. He says Y-IDE cables..so far I've had no luck finding them, all I see is normal IDE cables..any comments/suggestions/links?

I suppose that this 'extension' is suppose to connect to one of the current IDE cables, and have two more coming out of it, and the part that connects to the IDE cable has pins on it.
