Internal Storage Cable

The JacobsParts Mini SAS breakout cable links a RAID or PCIe controller equipped with an SFF-8087 port to four SATA drives. It supports up to 6Gbs per drive and measures 1.5 ft with an aqua blue woven sheath.

Server Builders and Storage Expansion

This cable suits administrators adding direct-attached SATA storage to a host bus adapter with a 32-pin mini SAS connector. It is not suited for external enclosures or for connecting drives without a SATA interface.

32-Pin SFF-8087 Connector

The single specification that decides compatibility is the 32-pin SFF-8087 connector on the controller side. Your host adapter must present this exact port for the cable to function.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 1.5 ft or 1.6 ft version of this breakout cable?

Both figures describe the same cable; the 1.5 ft label is the rounded spec and 1.6 ft is the exact 50 cm length, so there is no separate version to choose.

Will the 6Gbs per-drive rate actually be reached inside my server?

Each SATA drive can run at up to 6Gbs, but the four lanes share the host controller's PCIe 2.0 x8 bandwidth, so sustained throughput depends on the controller and drive mix.

Does the SFF-8087 end limit me to a specific SAS generation?

The SFF-8087 connector carries four 6Gbs lanes, matching the cable's rated 6Gbs per drive; it does not impose a lower ceiling than the drives themselves.
