SMUGDESK SFF-8482 SAS 29Pin to SATA 22Pin Cable with 4Pin Molex Power

SKU CH-R0PT-5849R

Converts a SFF-8482 29Pin SAS interface to standard SATA 22Pin for connecting SATA drives to SAS controllers with integrated 4Pin Molex power

  • Connect SAS controller to SATA drives via SFF-8482 29Pin adapter
  • Power SATA drives directly with integrated 4Pin Molex port
  • Reliable data transfer compliant with SAS and SATA standards
  • Optimised wiring reduces signal loss for server and PC upgrades
  • Compatible with 2.5 and 3.5 inch SATA HDDs and SSDs

SAS-to-SATA adapter with Molex power

This SFF-8482 29Pin to SATA 22Pin cable connects a SAS controller to standard SATA hard drives or SSDs. A built-in 4Pin Molex power port supplies drive power directly from the PSU, removing the need for a separate SATA power lead. It is suited for RAID arrays, server rebuilds and DIY storage expansion using 2.5 or 3.5 inch SATA drives. The cable operates plug-and-play without extra drivers.

Check controller and drive compatibility first

Verify that your host uses a SAS controller with an SFF-8482 port; this cable will not let SAS drives run on a regular SATA motherboard header. Ensure the target drives are SATA models in the 2.5 or 3.5 inch form factor and that a free 4Pin Molex connector is available from the power supply. The cable is designed for internal chassis routing, so confirm there is a clear path between the controller and drive bays.

Thermals noise and power draw

The cable itself is passive and generates no heat or noise during operation. Power for the attached drive comes entirely through the 4Pin Molex connection from the system PSU, so total draw matches the drive’s own specification. High-quality insulated conductors keep signal loss low under continuous load, supporting stable data transfer in RAID and server environments. Cable routing can be arranged to maintain airflow inside the chassis.

Questions about this item

Does the SFF-8482 29Pin to SATA 22Pin cable include a power adapter or do I need a separate Molex cable from my PSU?

The cable has a built-in 4Pin Molex port so you plug a standard PSU Molex lead directly into it; no extra SATA power cable is required.

Which drive sizes does the SFF-8482 SAS to SATA cable support for my RAID array?

It works with both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA hard drives and SSDs when connected to a SAS controller.

What does the SFF-8482 29Pin interface actually do when installed in a server with a SAS RAID card?

It converts the SAS controller port to a standard SATA 22Pin connection so SATA drives can be used in the RAID array.
