SATA Cable LogiLink CS0009 0.3m Red

The LogiLink SATA Cable CS0009 is a 0.3 m internal SATA II data cable with male-to-male connectors designed for connecting storage devices inside desktop PCs and workstations. Its short length reduces cable clutter and supports SATA II signalling for reliable data transfer between motherboard SATA ports and drives. The red jacket provides visual distinction in assembled systems and helps identify connections quickly during installation or maintenance.

Advantages

This 0.3 m SATA II cable offers compact routing for tight interior layouts while maintaining the appropriate impedance and connector fit for standard SATA sockets. The cable's red insulation improves visibility in multi-cable environments, aiding quick troubleshooting and neat cable management. Constructed to meet common SATA interface expectations, it ensures consistent link stability for hard drives and SSDs that use the SATA interface.

Suitable for

• Connecting internal hard disk drives (HDDs) to a motherboard
• Connecting solid-state drives (SSDs) to internal SATA ports
• Short-distance data links inside desktop PCs, small form factor builds, and test benches

Key specifications

• Cable type: SATA II (internal)
• Cable length: 0.3 m
• Connector type: SATA male to SATA male
• Colour: Red
• Application: Internal data connection for storage devices

How to use

Power down the system and disconnect mains power before installing the cable. Align each SATA male connector with the matching SATA port on the motherboard and on the drive, noting the keyed L-shaped connector orientation. Gently insert the connectors until they seat fully; avoid forcing or bending the cable sharply to preserve signal integrity. After connection, secure drives in their bays and route the cable to avoid interference with fans or moving parts. Reconnect power and boot the system to verify drive detection and proper operation.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this short SATA II cable for internal, short-reach connections where SATA II bandwidth is sufficient. Avoid running the cable near high-power or high-interference sources, and do not subject it to repeated sharp bends or mechanical strain. If higher transfer speeds or longer runs are required, consider cables specified for newer SATA generations or appropriate lengths.
