it's recommended but not essential....... i changed my cables with no effect!
it will, however, provide better imunity to interferance...... so provide 
better performance over the long term.

i have two quantum drives and they produce (using hdparm -t) between 14 and 
17Mb/sec so yours are about right....... you have optimised them i take it?
