Purpose and audience

This 60 cm SATA 3.0 cable connects storage drives to a motherboard using straight 180° connectors on both ends. It suits modders and builders who want a UV orange sleeved cable for colour-coordinated loop routing.

Thermals noise and power

The cable carries only low-voltage signalling current, so it adds no measurable heat or acoustic load to the system. Its sleeved construction does not alter the power draw of the attached SATA device.

Sustained load behaviour

Signal integrity remains stable during continuous data transfers because the cable meets the SATA 3.0 specification. The latched connectors resist accidental disconnection when the chassis is moved or vibrated over long periods.

Questions about this item

How do I install the DS-0169 SATA cable and which step is often missed?

Connect each 180° straight connector to the motherboard and drive SATA ports until the metal latch clicks; the step people miss is not pushing far enough to engage the latch, leaving the link unstable.

What maintenance or replacement will the UV Orange sleeved cable need later?

The sleeved SATA 3.0 data cable itself has no serviceable parts; replace it only if the latch breaks, the connectors loosen, or the 60 cm length no longer fits a revised drive layout.

What limit appears first on the DS-0169 under sustained 6 Gbit/s transfers?

The 1.97 ft (60 cm) sleeved run caps signal integrity before thermals do; beyond this length the 6 Gbit/s SATA 3.0 link may develop errors under continuous load.
