The ShiverPeaks BS78246-0.5 0.5m Red is a SATA III internal data cable designed for connecting 2.5"/3.5" SATA drives and other SATA devices to motherboards or controller cards. With a 0.5 metre length and standard male-to-male SATA connectors, this cable supports high-speed data transfer in desktop and small-form-factor systems while the red outer jacket helps identify connections inside the case.

Advantages

This SATA III cable provides reliable signal transmission for storage drives, ensuring compatibility with current SATA interfaces and supporting high data throughput. The compact 0.5 m length reduces cable clutter and improves airflow inside PC chassis. The red colour makes cable routing and drive identification easier during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Connecting 2.5" SSDs to motherboard SATA ports
• Connecting 3.5" HDDs to desktop motherboards or SATA controllers
• Internal cable routing in compact or standard PC builds
• Replacing or upgrading existing SATA cables

Key specifications

• Cable type: SATA III (serial ATA)
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: standard SATA male-to-male
• Colour: red outer jacket
• Typical use: internal data connection for SSDs and HDDs

How to use

Align the keyed SATA connector with the SATA port on the drive and gently insert until it seats securely; connect the other end to an available SATA port on the motherboard or controller card. Ensure both ends are fully inserted and supported to avoid stress on the connectors. Route the cable to prevent sharp bends and keep it clear of fans and moving parts. For best results, pair with a stable power connection to the drive.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this SATA III cable in systems with SATA III-capable ports and drives. Keep cable length minimal between drive and controller to reduce signal degradation. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and avoid excessive bending or twisting of the cable during routing.
