What this cable does

This Vszerda cable carries an external Mini SAS SFF-8088 male plug on one end and four 7-pin SATA female connectors on the other. It links a controller or host adapter with an SFF-8088 port directly to up to four SATA drives or a backplane. The 3.3-foot length suits typical rack or workstation cable runs. Rated for 3.0 Gb/s, it uses copper conductors and a press-button latch for secure mating.

Who should use it and who should not

Builders wiring external SAS controllers to SATA targets in servers, JBOD enclosures or workstations will find the pin-out and latch convenient. Buyers whose controller presents a different external port or whose backplane requires a different connector style cannot use this cable. Anyone needing longer reach than 3.3 feet or a higher signalling rate than 3.0 Gb/s should look elsewhere.

The spec that decides fit

The single deciding specification is the external 26-pin SFF-8088 Mini SAS connector on the host side. If the controller or HBA does not expose that exact port, the cable will not connect regardless of any other feature.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the cable generate during continuous operation?

The cable is a passive copper assembly with no active components, so it produces no audible noise and negligible heat while running all day.

What must the system already have for this cable to function?

The host side requires a controller or HBA with an external SFF-8088 Mini SAS port, and the drive side needs four SATA drives or a backplane with standard 7-pin SATA connectors.

Will the 3.0 Gbps Mini SAS link work with older 3 Gbps SATA drives I already own?

Yes, the SAS interface is backwards compatible with SATA, so the cable will operate at 3.0 Gbps with existing 3 Gbps SATA drives.
