LP4 to Dual SATA Power Splitter

This 1 ft adapter converts a single 4-pin LP4 Molex connector into two latching 15-pin SATA power receptacles. It enables you to power two Serial ATA hard drives or optical drives from one legacy power supply output. The 20 AWG cable weighs approximately 45.4 g and carries RoHS compliance.

Builders adding SATA drives to older PSUs

The cable suits anyone connecting SATA storage or optical drives to a power supply that only provides LP4 Molex leads. It will not help if your power supply already offers native SATA connectors or if you need to power more than two drives from a single Molex source.

Latching SATA receptacles prevent accidental

Each of the two 15-pin connectors features a latching design that secures the connection to the drive. This mechanical lock is the critical specification when vibration or cable routing could otherwise unseat a standard friction-fit SATA power plug.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the latching SATA power connectors are seated correctly after connecting the 1 ft splitter to my drives?

The latching receptacles click into place on each 15-pin SATA drive; a firm tug on the 20 AWG cable should not dislodge them, and the drives will spin up when the LP4 male plug is powered.

What comes in the box and do I need any extra cables to power two SATA drives from a single LP4 supply connector?

The package contains the 12-inch Y-cable with one 4-pin LP4 male end and two 15-pin latching SATA female ends; no additional cables are required for the split.

Which version of this splitter should I choose if I need to power a SATA hard drive and an optical drive from one Molex connector?

The single model PYO2LP4LSATA provides exactly that — one LP4 male to two latching SATA power receptacles — so it covers both drive types without any alternative versions to select.
