SSD Cables

[Challenger2]

Hi all,

I've just bought a OCZ 120 GB Vertex SSD. The were no cables or diagrams with it.

If one conector is the SAT II cable which I need to get, what is the other conection for, power if so what cable??

Thanks

One connector is the SATA data cable, the other is the power cable. The power supply inside your computer should already have a power cable that can attach to the drive. If it's an older power supply with the big white Molex connectors, you'll need a Molex-to-SATA power adapter. If you've run out of spare power cables from the power supply then you can get a "Y" adapter to share one of power leads going to another drive.
