SATA Power splitter connector
This connector saved me a lot of grief; The existing desktop did not have enough connectors for the additional SATA drives. The connector enabled the power to be shared across two SATA drives.I would recommend.

Does what it is supposed to
Perfect for my original Xbox upgrade so I could hot swap my harddrive to clone it onto a larger drive. Good value for the money easy to fit.

Molex crisis? What molex crisis?
I was not sure if such a thing existed, but this is exactly what i had in mind to resolve the problem i was going to have when it came to installing multiple hard drives in my pc and, so when i came across something that would save me having to find all the molex connections i needed, i knew that this was going to be the answer and, that has proved to be the case. This has proved to be a very good value cost effective way of using the one power plug that normally goes into the back of a sata hard drive disk, to power that drive and up to 3 more without using up all your molex connectors and / or having to use messy splitters, and that is a good thing.I Cannot fault the quality of the item at all, it is entirely fit for its intended purpose, very reasonably priced and only took a few days to arrive, postage free, from the supplier. A very useful product that i would recommend to anyone looking to fit multiple hard drives.

Worked fine - and relatively inexpensive solution to adding disk drives
I was adding a third SSD and I had a choice - remove my modular power supply to add another power lead (my custom build was delivered with all the spare corsair leads, and the vacant socket was not accessible) or extend the existing cable. As these were SSDs using leads rated for HDDs I wasn't concerned about overloading the cable. This was an easy solution. Works fine. No issues.

Simple and affordable
While not the cheapest option, StarTech is a well-known brand which makes these the safer option for a similar price. Simple, cheap, and effective.

For under £4 delivered, it's great value and a reliable product.
STARTECH.COM StarTech 4x SATA Power Splitter Adapter CableThe installation was easy and use it to now power 3 of my storage devices leaving one for future upgrades and adhoc use for backup devices from time to time.Everything works fine, there’s not a massive drain from the PSU using SSD’s and even when a third 2GB 7200 HDD is connected, with intensive use (a full backup) my machine works fine.I can’t comment if there are any potential downfalls using one SATA power source to power 4 more demanding devices, but for 2 x SSD & 1 x HDD powered by a 400watt PSU, it’s been no problem at all. I might suggest checking the documentation of your PSU.As stated in the description“Add three extra sata power outlets to your power supply- Power up to 4 SATA drives from a single Serial ATA power supply connection”The spacing is adequate for an array for drives, which in most circumstances is the case but for anything more than two slots you may have to skip a power connection rendering it useless, the actual dimensions of the cable are slightly different to than from in the spec, it’s 40cm in total with a spread of 10cm for the power connections. The power connections are a snug fit, there’s been no issue of them coming loose, and I’m frequently switching a slave drive. It might be worth mentioning that the cables are quite stiff and are individual, so a few small cable ties might be a good option to tidy things up. Aesthetically, it’s not at showcase standard! Though I’m not too bothered about the presentation in my PC’s internals as long as it’s safe and doesn’t impact the operation of any other components.For under £4 delivered, it's great value and a reliable product.Storage devices powered.Samsung MZ-76E500B/EU 500 GB 860 EVO Sata III 64L V NAND Solid State DriveDREVO X1 Series 240GB SSD 2.5-inch Solid State Drive SATA3 Read 550MB/S Write 470M/SWestern Digital 2TB 3.5" HDD SATA III - 6Gb/s, 5400 RPM, 64MB Cache
