Sata power extension or MOLEX

Gershy · Jul 22, 2014

Hi

I just bought a ODD for my pc but the sata power cable will not reach to the drive because it is plugged in to and SSD...

so im looking for a sata power extension cable...

should i get an extension cable or a Molex to Sata power adaptor??

which one is more reliable

also it would help if you can suggest one too

preferably fast delivery to London

ebay, amazon or such

I would suggest that using a free Molex with a SATA power adapter would make more sense that loading the current SATA cable. What kind of PSU do you have that have only one SATA cable, BTW?

SOmething like this will be just fine: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812200061

The MOLEX to sata adapters last forever. I used FOXCONN ones that came with my computer for more than 3 years without any issues. If you want good looking ones get the "Bitfenix" brand ones.

'Free molex' is a MOLEX plug that you aren't using at the moment.

Amazon usually has the quickest shipping so you will probably just have to wait.
