MCIO 8X to 8x SATA cable

This MCIO 8X SFF-TA-1016 cable connects a host or RAID controller to eight SATA drives through a 74-pin interface. It supports PCIe 4.0 speeds using silver-plated AWG31 twinax conductors. The 0.5 metre length suits dense server and RAID chassis where space is limited. A reinforced latch prevents accidental disconnection.

Who this suits and who it does not

Suits builders wiring NVMe HBAs or PCIe host adapters to SATA backplanes in 10 Gb/s environments. Not for buyers who need longer runs, external eSATA connections, or direct NVMe device attachment without a controller. The fixed 1.6 foot reach limits placement in larger enclosures.

Deciding specification

The MCIO SFF-TA-1016 8X 74-pin connector defines compatibility; it must match the controller port exactly. Pin-out and latch orientation are fixed by the SFF-TA-1016 standard. Verify the host side before purchase.

Questions about this item

What host connector do I need on my HBA or motherboard to plug in the MCIO 8X SFF-TA-1016 end?

You need an MCIO SFF-TA-1016 8X 74Pin male receptacle on the host or RAID adapter.

Will the SATA 7Pin connectors on this cable work with my existing 6 Gb/s SATA SSDs and HDDs?

Yes, the 8x SATA 7Pin targets are standard SATA connectors compatible with 6 Gb/s drives.

How can I verify the link is running at the rated 10 Gb/s after installation?

Check the HBA or OS reporting for a negotiated 10 Gb/s link speed on each attached drive.
