18-inch SATA 3 cables for internal drives

This 50-pack of EN-Labs SATA 3 cables connects motherboards and host controllers to internal Serial ATA hard drives and DVD drives. Each cable measures 18 inches with 26AWG tinned copper conductors and locking latches on both connectors. The black cables are UL listed and RoHS compliant for safe installation.

SATA 3.0 interface capped at 6.0 Gbps

The SATA Revision 3.0 standard supports data transfer speeds up to 6.0 Gbps, though actual throughput is limited by the rating of the attached equipment. These cables are backwards compatible with SATA I and SATA II devices, but cannot exceed the maximum speed of the slowest connected component. They carry data only and do not supply power to drives.

Check for 7-pin SATA data ports and separate power

Verify that your motherboard or controller has available 7-pin SATA data ports and that your power supply provides the required SATA power connectors for each drive. The 18-inch length suits standard chassis layouts, but measure your routing path to confirm reach. This pack is not suited for builders who need right-angle connectors or external eSATA connections.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the 18 inch cables and a longer or shorter length?

The 18 inch length suits typical internal drive bays; choose a longer cable only if your motherboard SATA ports sit far from the drive cage.

What does the 6.0 Gbps rating actually deliver when the cable is installed?

The cable supports the SATA 3.0 ceiling of 6.0 Gbps, but real throughput is capped by the drive and controller you attach it to.

Which SATA standard does the 7‑pin locking connector follow, and what speed limit does it enforce?

It follows the SATA 3.0 specification, so the interface itself tops out at 6.0 Gbps regardless of the drive’s own rating.
