Connecting legacy power to SATA drives
This cable converts a single 4-pin Molex connector into five 15-pin SATA power ports. It lets builders run multiple solid-state or mechanical drives from one older power-supply lead. The 18 AWG wire gauge supports the current draw of typical desktop storage devices. It suits upgrades where the PSU lacks native SATA connectors.
Thermals noise and power draw
Passive wiring produces no audible noise and adds negligible resistance to the circuit. Heat generation stays minimal because the 18 AWG conductors handle normal drive loads without measurable temperature rise. No active cooling or fan headers are involved. The assembly draws only the power required by the attached drives.
Five SATA ports from one Molex
The splitter provides five 15-pin outputs spaced along a 20 cm lead with four 10 cm branches. Builders needing six or more SATA power connections will require an additional cable or a PSU with more native ports. The black 18 AWG construction matches standard desktop wiring colour codes. Each port is female, accepting standard drive power plugs.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the 4Pin Molex plug to my power supply and the 15Pin SATA connectors to five drives?
Plug the male Molex end into a free PSU Molex socket, then attach each female 15Pin SATA head to a drive; the 20 cm lead reaches the first device and four 10 cm branches serve the rest.
Will the 18AWG wires need replacement after heavy use?
The 18AWG copper conductors are rated for continuous SATA power loads; inspect connectors for discolouration or loose pins after years of service, but the cable itself has no scheduled replacement interval.
How many drives can run simultaneously before voltage drop becomes an issue?
Five SATA devices draw power through the single Molex feed; sustained loads near the PSU rail limit will show voltage sag first on the furthest 10 cm branch.
