SKU CH-KVAW-45GD8

Converts one Molex connector into five SATA power ports using 18AWG tinned copper wire over 60cm

  • Powers five SATA drives from one IDE Molex connector
  • 18AWG tinned copper wire handles high current safely
  • Flat black cable improves chassis airflow and cable routing
  • 60 cm total length with 20 cm lead and four 10 cm branches
  • Lightweight 52 g design adds minimal weight to the build

Ruth's sister IDE Molex to 5-Port SATA Cable

This new internal power cable converts a single IDE Molex connector into five SATA 15-pin female ports. It is built with 18 AWG tinned-copper conductors on a 60 cm black flat ribbon that weighs 52 g. The 20 cm lead plus four 10 cm branches suit desktop PC, server and DIY storage builds.

Builders expanding SATA drive counts

The cable serves anyone adding multiple hard disks or SSDs to a power supply that only offers Molex plugs. It does not help installers who need SATA power from a native SATA source or who require right-angle connectors for tight drive bays. Buyers needing more than five SATA devices must use additional cables or a different power distribution method.

Five SATA 15-pin ports from one Molex

The decisive specification is the one-to-five SATA 15-pin female output arrangement. If the power supply lacks a free Molex connector, or if the build demands more than five SATA power connections, this cable will not fit the requirement.

Questions about this item

How many drives can the 5-port SATA cable power at once?

The cable splits one IDE Molex connector into five SATA 15-pin female ports, so it can supply power to five SATA hard drives or SSDs simultaneously.

Does the 18 AWG wire run hot when all five ports are loaded for hours?

The 18 AWG tinned-copper conductors are rated for the current draw of typical SATA devices; under normal sustained loads the cable stays within safe temperature limits.

What power connector must the PSU already have for this cable to work?

Your power supply needs a free 4-pin IDE Molex male connector to plug the cable into; the cable then provides five SATA 15-pin female connectors for drives.
