Do I need to buy an eSATA cable for DriveStation Combo4?

 

The "package contents" lists USB cable, firewire 400 cable  6pin-6pin, firewire 400 cable 6pin-4pin, Firewire 800 cable 9pin-9pin - but no eSATA cable. 

 

The setup instructions say "...connect one of the include data cables (USB, fireware or eSATA) into the back..."

You will only need to purchase an eSATA cable if you want to use the eSATA functionality. The device comes with firewire and USB cables.
