From your discription, these are thermometers.

What kind of ends do these cables have? are they plugs (like the power button cable) or has it got a small clear thingo at the end?

They are like micro thin copper coloured strips

My guess would be they are what tells you the temperature of each part.

I'm thinking that all you have to do is attach them to the heatsink of each part, or the outside of the hard drive, and it returns the temperature to the display on the front of the case.

Many thanks for the answer would double sided sticky tape be ok to attach them or would this hinder the true temps?

The sticky tape would melt on the heatsinks and stink up your case

you should be able to just sit them next to it and it reads the temps
