SMUGDESK MCIO x8 to 8×SATA Cable 75cm SFFTA1016 74Pin

SKU CH-FMYE-993GK

Splits one MCIO x8 host port into eight SATA connectors over 75cm for server RAID and NAS storage expansion

  • Single MCIO x8 port drives eight SATA drives
  • 75cm length suits full-height server and NAS chassis
  • Shielded conductors keep RAID arrays stable under load
  • Plug-and-play hardware, no driver installation needed
  • SFFTA1016 74Pin host connects to standard SATA 7Pin drives

MCIO x8 Host to Eight SATA Drives

This internal cable bridges a single SFFTA1016 74Pin MCIO x8 host port to eight separate SATA 7pin data connectors. It enables a RAID controller channel to address up to eight hard drives or solid-state drives simultaneously. The 75cm length suits large server and NAS chassis where longer internal routing is required. No driver installation is needed for operation.

Shielded Construction for Dense Wiring

Professional-grade shielding reduces crosstalk and interference across all eight data lanes during sustained heavy workloads. The 75cm reach lets installers route cables cleanly around backplanes and drive cages without forcing tight bends. This maintains reliable signal integrity in multi-drive RAID arrays and storage expansions. The design targets continuous operation in server environments.

Capacity Headroom and Practical Limits

One MCIO x8 link distributes bandwidth across eight SATA devices, so aggregate throughput depends on the host controller and drive mix. The cable handles eight simultaneous connections but cannot add bandwidth beyond the single host lane. Builders needing more than eight drives must add another controller port. SATA power cables are not included and must be sourced separately.

Questions about this item

Will the SFFTA1016 74Pin MCIO connector or the eight SATA 7pin ends need periodic replacement?

The cable is a passive internal assembly with no moving parts or active components, so neither the MCIO host connector nor the eight SATA data plugs require scheduled replacement under normal server use.

What limits sustained throughput when all eight drives are active continuously?

Aggregate bandwidth is constrained by the single MCIO x8 host lane width, so the host controller's per-lane signalling rate becomes the first bottleneck when every attached SATA drive transmits simultaneously.

How much heat or noise does the cable add during all-day operation in a server chassis?

The shielded passive cable generates no audible noise and negligible heat; thermal load and acoustic profile are determined entirely by the drives and controller, not by the 75cm cord itself.
