SMUGDESK Mini SAS SFF-8087 to 4 SATA 6Gbps Cable 1.0m

SKU CH-N5VV-BQZDB

Connects one Mini SAS 8087 port to four SATA drives at 6Gbps with shielded 1.0m length for server storage expansion

  • Connect four SATA drives from one Mini SAS port
  • 6 Gbps SATA III speed with 1.5 and 3 Gbps backward compatibility
  • Shielded wiring cuts interference for stable reads and writes
  • 0 metre length fits server chassis and RAID arrays
  • Works with RAID cards, HBAs, surveillance and multi-disk workstations

Mini SAS SFF-8087 to 4 SATA cable

This 1.0 metre cable splits a single SFF-8087 Mini SAS port into four independent SATA channels. It lets a RAID controller or HBA connect up to four SATA hard drives, SSDs or optical drives at once. The shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference for stable data transfer.

Builders expanding internal storage on a RAID card

Suits server, workstation and surveillance chassis where a Mini SAS controller must feed multiple SATA bays. Not for systems that lack an SFF-8087 Mini SAS host port, nor for direct drive-to-drive links or external drive enclosures.

SATA III 6Gbps supported speed

The cable carries the SATA III specification up to 6Gbps and is backward compatible with SATA 2.0 and 1.5Gbps devices. This bandwidth ceiling is the single figure that determines whether the link matches your drives and controller.

Questions about this item

What controller port do I need to connect the SFF-8087 end of this cable?

You need a free Mini SAS SFF-8087 port on a RAID controller card or HBA host adapter to plug in the single 36-pin connector.

Will my existing SATA 3Gbps and 1.5Gbps drives work at their rated speeds through this cable?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with SATA 2.0 and SATA 1.0 devices, so each drive runs at its native 3Gbps or 1.5Gbps limit.

How can I verify all four SATA channels are active after I route the 1.0m cable inside my server chassis?

Check the RAID controller BIOS or operating system disk manager; all four attached drives should appear as separate devices with healthy S.M.A.R.T. status.
