Two black Y cables with SATA male to Molex LP4 and SP4 connectors

Aomoproing

Aomoproing SATA to Molex LP4 & SP4 Splitter Cable 8 Inches 2pack

SKU CH-8KNF-BMTXH

Splits a SATA 15pin power connector into Molex LP4 and SP4 4pin plugs using 18AWG copper wire

Pack 2pack

  • Powers IDE and floppy drives from a SATA 15pin PSU connector
  • 18AWG copper conductors with UL listing ensure reliable current delivery
  • Y-splitter design feeds both LP4 and SP4 devices simultaneously
  • 8 inch length keeps internal cable routing tidy
  • Supports 12V and 5V rails for compatible 4pin peripherals

Power for legacy drives

This Y-cable converts a single SATA 15pin power connector into both an IDE Molex LP4 and an SP4 4pin plug, letting older hard drives or floppy units run from a modern PSU. The 18AWG copper conductors and UL listing indicate a reliable build for desktop or server installations. It suits builders who still operate legacy storage but have exhausted native Molex leads on their power supply.

Capacity and headroom

Each branch delivers the 12V and 5V rails required by IDE and floppy devices, so a typical mechanical drive or legacy peripheral draws comfortably within the cable's rated conductors. The 8 inch length keeps routing tidy inside compact cases, though it limits placement to drives near the PSU or existing SATA power runs. Users with multiple legacy devices will need additional splitters or a PSU that still provides native Molex outputs.

Upgrade path

The cable replaces a missing Molex or floppy power lead on power supplies that offer only SATA 15pin connectors, avoiding a full PSU swap when adding one or two older drives. It is worth the jump when the rest of the system is current and only the storage interface is dated. It does not serve builds that require power for newer high-current devices or for installations where the drive sits far from the PSU.

Questions about this item

Will the 18AWG copper conductors on this splitter handle a 12V IDE drive alongside my existing SATA devices without voltage drop?

The 18AWG copper wires are rated for the 12V and 5V lines that IDE Molex LP4 and SP4 devices require, so the splitter delivers the same rail voltages your PSU already provides to SATA drives.

How can I confirm the Y-cable is delivering power to both the LP4 and SP4 connectors after I plug it into the 15-pin SATA lead?

Spin up an IDE hard drive on the LP4 plug and a floppy drive on the SP4 plug; if both devices start and stay running, the splitter is passing 12 V and 5 V correctly.

Does the 2-pack include any extra SATA power leads or mounting hardware, or just the two 8-inch splitter cables?

The package contains only the two 8-inch SATA 15-pin male to Molex LP4 and SP4 female Y-cables; no additional SATA leads, screws or adapters are supplied.
