SATA III cable for 6 Gb/s drives

This 1.5 ft red SATA III male-to-male cable links a drive to a host controller at up to 6 Gb/s. Flexible rubber sleeving resists tight bends inside compact cases. The cable is backward compatible with 3 Gb/s and 1.5 Gb/s devices. RoHS compliant construction meets restricted-substance requirements.

Builders needing a short internal link

Suits anyone connecting a single SSD or hard drive close to the motherboard port. The 1.5 ft length reduces clutter in small chassis. Builders who need to span larger cases or route behind drive cages should look at longer cables. Hot-plug support allows drive changes without system shutdown.

1.5 ft length decides fit

At exactly 1.5 ft the cable reaches only nearby ports, so measure the motherboard-to-drive path before ordering. Two straight connectors are provided with no right-angle option. The red UV-reactive sleeve aids cable identification in lit builds.

Questions about this item

Will the 6 Gb/s rating still apply if I plug this cable into a 3 Gb/s port?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with 3 Gb/s and 1.5 Gb/s ports, so it will negotiate the lower speed automatically.

Does the SATA III interface on this cable limit the maximum throughput of a modern SSD?

The cable supports SATA 6 Gb/s technology, which is the ceiling for the SATA III interface itself; any SATA SSD will be limited by that bus speed.

How much clearance do I need behind the drive tray for the 1.5 ft red cable and its rubber sleeving?

The cable is 1.5 ft long with durable flexible rubber sleeving that can be bent and twisted, so it fits in tight drive bays without kinking.
