SAS-to-SATA adapter for DIY storage builds
This 2.3ft SFF-8482 SAS to SATA cable lets you connect SAS hard drives directly to standard motherboard SATA ports. It supports both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SFF-8482 drives, making it suitable for desktop upgrades, home servers, and data backup systems. The adapter eliminates the need for a separate controller card in basic configurations.
Integrated Molex power simplifies wiring
A 7-inch Molex 4-pin power lead is built into the assembly, delivering power to the drive alongside the data connection. This removes the requirement to source a separate power cable, reducing internal clutter and easing installation in tight chassis. The single-cable design streamlines the upgrade process for DIY builders.
Shielded 2.3ft run handles typical chassis layouts
The cable length provides flexible routing for drives mounted in various bay positions within a standard case. Multi-layer shielding and high-purity copper conductors minimise signal attenuation and electromagnetic interference to maintain data integrity. It is not intended for external enclosures or backplane architectures requiring longer runs or different connector types.

Questions about this item
Will the Molex 4-pin power connector need replacing during the drive's lifespan?
The 7-inch Molex 4-pin lead is moulded into the cable assembly; if the connector wears out the whole adapter must be swapped.
What length limit appears first when routing the 2.3ft data cable in a full-size chassis?
The 2.3ft data span sets the maximum drive-to-motherboard distance before signal quality drops.
How warm does the SFF-8482 SAS to SATA adapter get during all-day operation?
The shielded copper conductors run at normal cable temperatures; no active cooling is required.
