Selected User Reviews For Cable Matters 3-Pack Straight SATA III 6.0 Gbps SATA Cable (SATA 3 Cable) Red - 18 Inches

What the heck are you talking about? The cable I had in my hand just snapped my hard drive! Over 20 years of digital life are now lost! There was a misaligned catch on the connector, so I couldn't lock it onto my drive when I plugged it in
3/5

The clip and head were adjusted and the procedure was repeated. I tried again, but the bolt wouldn't lock, and the feel was My colleague checked it again and discovered that the plastic sheath that covered the pins had been pulled off. In my first attempt to connect it, I had misaligned the clip so badly that it snapped the assembly and broke the sheath right

SO. . . WHAT DO WE DO? This $200 drive is not going to come back, much less all my data, even after receiving a replacement or refund for the cable.

- This is a review of Cable Matters Three Pack of Sata 6 Gbps cables
5/5

They have an easy to use design and are at a reasonable price. I purchased the simple and easy to use sata cables for a reasonable price. I chose the 18" cable and it is the perfect size for my case. Corsair 760T full tower feature my sata cables now have is a locking mechanism, and each cable has it In terms of quality, I found everything to be nice and they felt good on my hand. They did not seem cheap or subpar to me. A cable like this would be ideal for your PC since they offer the full 6 Gbps speed. The cards are also backwards compatible with SATA I and II ports just in case you wanted to be I am generally happy with how they work and I am satisfied with how well they work. The review will be updated should there be any ongoing issues with the products, as I do in all of my reviews.

I love this product
5/5

It is exactly what I expected it to be. There was one SATA cable with two straight ends and one cable with a straight end and a 90 degree end that came with my motherboard. Cable management issues were causing a problem for me with the 90 degree end cable The system runs faster with two drives of 2 GB each after swapping out an HDD for an SSD. The 2. 5 inch form factor allows for the use of five inch SSDs. A ratio of 5 to 3 would be appropriate. This will take five 5 inch drives). The 90 degree cable end was replaced with a fully straight cable, and I now have two spare cables in case I want to add more SSDs to my system in the future. I would recommend it tenfold, and would order it again in a heartbeat.

Loose cable fittings are a thing of the past
5/5

Even though Sata cable sockets are loose as a goose, I've never actually seen a cable fall out of the socket. In addition to friction on the connector pins, the only thing holding them in the socket is the flat surface on the connector. There is a steel spring tab on the end of these cables that holds them firmly The cables hold their shape even after you bend them into place, so even though they are stiff, they still hold their shape once bent. Cables have a mind of their own when it comes to Sata If you bend them, they just pop right back to the same shape as when they were in Cables are nice. This is an excellent book!.

The width of the bar is too large
3/5

As long as the SATA power cable is next to it, they are too wide to use together. Out of the three that were in the pack, I could use just one. Additionally, they do not lock into place the way they should. A few of the cards kept falling out. Design of poor quality. They should have been sent back to me.

The cable management is excellent in terms of length and quality
5/5

Despite ordering the straight 24 inch black cables, I received them with the metal clips on the end and they did fit most of my drives just fine. I prefer the longer cables for managing the wiring in my PC much better than the short ones. Likewise, I wish I had ordered the angled cables before. They work well in some situations, but not all the time. The angles of the drives will depend on how much room you have and whether they can be mounted at a 90 degree angle. As an end user, I have actually grown to like these sellers because I have ordered quite a few different types of cables from them and I am always satisfied! With these, you just can't go wrong.

The cables do not have any problems
5/5

There are usually two SATA ports on most motherboards, and if you decide to add more than a boot drive/DVD, you will need to purchase additional SATA ports. The drives in two casings I own didn't have direct connections to the SATA connectors on the motherboard and they were connected to the drives in both cases separately. Small Form Factor case used as a HTPC, and preferred to have a 24" cable rather than a shorter one. I tested these out with a 12" or 18" cable and they worked great. Those will be ordered so I'll have plenty.

Hours of frustration were caused by a faulty cable
3/5

This was part of a purchase I made with my SSD upgrade. In the event that my SSD started to misbehave, I spent hours trying to diagnose the issue, including reformatting, repartitioning, and restarting many times. Having spent hours waiting for the drive to arrive, I finally sent it back because I still had the Seeing as how it only took a minute to change the cable, I did it just for the heck of it. While I am happy to read that some people were able to get results with these cables (if reviews are true), I wasn't fortunate. I hate it.
