Monoprice 108799 SATA Power Adapter

This Monoprice adapter converts a Molex 4-pin power connector into a single SATA 15-pin power plug with a locking latch. It measures 0.67 ft and weighs 0.03 lb. The cable lets builders power SATA drives from older power supplies that lack native SATA connectors.

Builders adding SATA drives to Molex-only PSUs

Suits anyone fitting a SATA hard drive or SSD into a system whose power supply offers only 4-pin Molex leads. Not for drives that require 3.3 VDC, because the Molex source supplies only 5 V and 12 V. Buyers needing multiple SATA plugs or a 3.3 V line should look at a different solution.

Fits tight spaces, frees a Molex lead

The short 0.67 ft length keeps cable routing tidy inside compact cases. The locking latch secures the 15-pin connector against vibration. One free Molex receptacle is consumed, delivering 5 V and 12 V to the SATA device without additional power cables.

Questions about this item

Which Molex power connector on my existing power supply will this 15-pin SATA adapter plug into?

It connects to any standard 4-pin Molex power plug on your power supply.

Will a SATA drive that needs 3.3 VDC start up correctly when powered through this adapter?

No, the Molex side supplies only 5 VDC and 12 VDC, so drives requiring 3.3 VDC will not operate.

How can I confirm the latch on the 15-pin SATA connector is seated properly after installation?

The latch clicks into the drive's SATA power port and resists a gentle pull, showing a secure lock.
