High-Speed SATA III Data Transfer
Built to the SATA III standard, this cable moves data at up to 6Gbps — twice the throughput of SATA II — so your drives can read and write at their full potential. It stays backward compatible with SATA I and SATA II devices, with real-world speed determined by the SATA rating of the drive you connect.
A Secure, Stable Connection
Locking latches on both connectors click firmly into place, holding the cable steady and preventing the accidental disconnections that can interrupt file transfers or corrupt data. It’s a straightforward way to keep your storage setup reliable, whether it’s tucked inside a desktop case or a busy server.
Durable Build, Broad Compatibility
A tinned copper core keeps signal transmission stable while the 26AWG wiring keeps resistance and signal loss to a minimum. It works with HDDs, SSDs and optical drives (DVD, CD and Blu-ray) across desktop PCs, laptops and servers. Note that this is a data-only cable — your drive still needs a separate SATA power connection.
