Straight-latch SATA III cable for tight builds
This 6-inch SATA III data cable uses 180-degree latching connectors on both ends to secure drives in confined chassis. The 26AWG tinned copper conductors are shielded and rated for 6.0 Gbps transfer speeds under the SATA revision III specification. It connects host controllers to HDDs or SSDs with a simple straight-through layout.
Suited for short internal runs where a locking
Builders who need a secure, low-profile link between a motherboard port and a nearby drive will find the latch helpful. The fixed 6-inch length makes it impractical for routing across full-tower cases or behind drive cages that demand longer cables. Users requiring right-angle connectors or extended reach should look elsewhere.
180-degree latching connector decides fit
Both ends use a 7-pin SATA 180-degree latching receptacle, so the cable only works where straight connectors clear surrounding components. If the drive bay or motherboard header needs an angled plug, this cable will not seat properly.

Questions about this item
Will the 26 AWG conductors or the 180-degree latch connector wear out and need replacement?
The 26 AWG tinned copper conductors and 180-degree latch connector are rated for the cable's lifetime; no scheduled replacement is required.
What limits sustained throughput first on this 6.0 Gbps cable?
The attached drive or host controller limits sustained throughput; the cable itself supports the full 6.0 Gbps SATA III rate.
Does the 6-inch length or shielding affect heat or power draw during all-day operation?
The short 6-inch shielded cable adds negligible resistance, so it does not increase heat or power draw during continuous use.
