StarTech 18-inch latching SATA cable

This StarTech LSATA18RA1 cable connects a standard SATA device to a host port with one right-angled connector. The 18 inch length suits tight drive bays or compact chassis layouts. A red jacket makes the cable easy to trace during builds or maintenance.

Installers working in confined spaces

Builders who need a straight-through cable on both ends or a longer reach for full-tower cases should look elsewhere. The single right-angle end limits flexibility when both connectors must face the same direction.

Right-angle connector for clearance-critical

The angled plug reduces strain on the device port and keeps the cable flat against the drive. Latching ends lock in place to prevent accidental disconnects during transport or vibration. Rated for Serial ATA II speeds up to 300 MB/s.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 18in or 1.5ft length for my build?

Both figures describe the same cable; 18 inches equals 1.5 feet, so only one physical length exists.

What does the 300 MB/Sec rate mean once the cable is installed?

It is the maximum throughput allowed by the Serial ATA II specification; actual speed depends on the drive and controller used.

Which SATA standard does this cable follow and what does it cap?

It complies with Serial ATA II, which caps the interface at 300 MB/Sec.
