CY SAS Adapter SFF-8482 SAS 29 Pin to SATA 22Pin Hard Disk Drive Raid Extension Adapter 90 Degree Angled

I like these over those blue ones. Only real issue is the one I bought was way too long and I don't think when I purchased there was a shorter option. Overall I was having issues with newer sas drives having PWDIS feature and you can make them work by powering via molex connector which is what this has. The flexibility of these cables vs the blue cables is much better and doesn't feel as bulky on the connector going into the hard drive.

Exactly what I needed,, works perfectly

Somebody got clever for some reason (out of stock perhaps) and thought that substituting a cable with IDE connectors + IDE to Molex adapters would be a reasonable alternative. However, that is not what the listing shows, and if I wanted that, I'd have ordered those pieces which are commonly available. Plus it is the blue mylar wires, not the vinyl more flexible kind. There have been times when this substitution would have been reasonable and even advantageous, but not this time. This cannot fit in my HP Z440 case - it is 2 inches too wide (fat) for the side panel to close. Thus it is useless to me. Even the Molex style that this was supposed to be is a tight fit; I have to use SAS right angle connectors, which are even more impossible with these IDE adapters. I've requested a replacement, so we'll see if this is an isolated incident, or if there is more bogus inventory. Meanwhile I've decided to also order another vendor's product (which arrives sooner) so I don't have to wait days again if it remains bogus.

Great product from a great seller.

Good quality and ease to use. Strong built.
