Do you need an extra SATA data cable? Or a SATA power connector?
If your power supply has open Molex connectors you can buy a Molex to SATA transition pretty cheap.

This should take care of the issue unless the HDD is sata style. You will need to determine this first and we can provide the solution but either way you can add this drive without to much fuss.
Ultra Int. 3-1 x Small 4 Pin Power Adapter Cable at TigerDirect.com

Make and model or link would be easier. Also take a picture or two showing the free power connectors from the PSU. Even cheap pre-builds will have power to add a second optical and at least two HDD's if not three.

If you want to add that many maybe an easier solution IMHO is this:
Sans Digital MobileSTOR MS4UM+B 4-Bay Tower - 4x Bays, eSATA, USB 3.0, RAID, Black at TigerDirect.com
Mine is an even cheaper non raid version and I have 6tb's installed currently via USB 3.0 or esata.
