Three-cable SATA III kit

This pack contains three straight-to-straight SATA III data cables, each 18 inches long, with locking latches on both ends. They link motherboards or host controllers to internal Serial ATA hard drives and DVD drives for expanded storage. The cables are black, UL listed and RoHS compliant. Condition is new.

Locking latches secure every connection

Each cable features a locking latch at both connectors to prevent accidental disconnection during file transfers. The 180-degree straight layout fits standard drive bays and motherboard headers without sharp bends. No power conductors are included, so drives must receive power separately from the PSU.

Suits builders adding multiple SATA drives

Ideal for RAID arrays, spare cables or simultaneous upgrades where several drives need reliable data links. Not for users who need angled connectors for tight clearances, longer runs beyond 18 inches, or combined data-and-power cables. Buyers wanting external eSATA connections should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How long before the locking latches on these 18-inch SATA III cables wear out?

The metal locking latches are rated for repeated insertion cycles; under normal internal use they rarely need replacement unless physically damaged.

What limits sustained throughput first on a 6 Gbps SATA III cable?

The attached drive or controller caps real-world speed; the cable itself supports the full 6 Gbps spec.

Do these 1.5-foot black cables add heat or noise inside a running PC?

Passive copper conductors generate no audible noise and negligible heat; they draw no power of their own.
