Power a SATA drive from Molex

This 20 cm cable converts a single 4-pin Molex connector into a 15-pin SATA power plug so you can run a SATA hard drive or SSD from an older power supply. It is built for anyone adding SATA storage to a system that only offers Molex leads.

Fits tight routing paths

The short 20 cm length keeps excess wire out of the airflow path and works in compact cases where longer adapters would not tuck away cleanly. No extra power rails or splitters are required; the adapter draws directly from the existing Molex line.

Ready to use immediately

The LP4 female end mates with the supply and the SATA power connector mates with the drive, so installation is a straight plug-in with no drivers or configuration. Builders who need to power multiple SATA devices from one Molex lead will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

How many SATA drives can the MLX-STA01 power from one Molex connector?

The cable provides a single 15-pin SATA power connector, so it powers one drive per adapter.

Does the 20 cm cable length affect voltage drop or heat during continuous operation?

At 20 cm the resistance is negligible, so voltage drop and heat stay minimal even with the drive running all day.

What power connector must the power supply already have for this adapter to work?

The power supply needs a standard 4-pin Molex (LP4) output to plug into the female end of this cable.
