45 cm SATA 3.0 data cable for modders

This 45 cm SATA 3.0 cable connects a storage drive to a motherboard or controller using a straight plug on one end and a right-angle plug on the other. The red UV-reactive sleeving is intended for builders who want a coloured accent inside a windowed chassis. It suits modders looking for a short, pre-sleeved link rather than a bare bulk cable.

Check connector orientation and latch clearance

Verify that the drive or backplane accepts a right-angle SATA plug without blocking adjacent ports or a side panel. The straight end needs a clear vertical path to the motherboard header. Ensure the latch on each connector can be depressed for removal once the cable is routed behind a motherboard tray or drive cage.

Braided sleeve with latching SATA plugs

The cable is fully sleeved in red UV-reactive braid that resists fraying and adds stiffness for cleaner routing. Both ends carry standard SATA 3.0 data connectors with metal locking latches to prevent accidental disconnection. The 180° to 90° layout lets the right-angle end hug a drive PCB while the straight end reaches a board header without sharp bends.

Questions about this item

What comes with the DS-0081 SATA cable and do I need anything else?

The box contains one 45 cm SATA 3.0 cable with a straight 180° connector on one end and a right-angle 90° connector on the other, both with locking latches. No extra parts are required for a standard drive connection.

Should I choose the 45 cm red UV version or a different length and angle?

Pick the 45 cm (18 inch) 180°-to-90° cable when the drive sits close to the motherboard port and a right-angle plug eases routing; choose a 12 inch cable for tighter runs or a straight-to-straight version if both ports face the same way.

What does the SATA 3.0 rating mean once the cable is installed?

It supports the full 6 Gb/s SATA 3.0 bandwidth, so an SSD or hard drive connected with this cable will run at its rated transfer speed without being limited by the link.
