Purpose and audience

This adaptor cable converts a 5.25 male connector to a 15-pin SATA female connector so legacy power supplies can run modern SATA devices. It is built for system integrators and hobbyists who need to add SATA power without replacing the PSU.

Fit and limits

The cable suits builds that rely on Molex LP4 outputs and have a free 5.25 header for hard drives optical drives or tape units. It does not serve users who need multiple SATA drops from one header or who require a longer reach than the fixed 6 in. length.

Deciding specification

The single detail that determines compatibility is the 5.25 male to 15-pin SATA female connector pairing. Only systems with an available 5.25 power header can use this adaptor.

Questions about this item

Will the 5.25 male connector need replacing if the pins bend?

The 5.25 male connector is a solid moulded part; if pins bend the whole cable must be replaced.

What limits the current the 15-pin SATA female can deliver continuously?

The 15-pin SATA female connector rating and the wire gauge set the continuous current limit.

Does the 6 in. cable run warm when powering a drive all day?

The short 6 in. length keeps resistance low, so the cable stays cool during all-day operation.
