LP4 to dual SATA power adapter

This 12-inch cable splits one LP4 male connector from a power supply into two 15-pin SATA female connectors. It lets you power two SATA drives without upgrading the power supply. The short length keeps routing tidy inside the case. Compatible with all Serial ATA hard drives and simple to install.

Sustained load behaviour

Power delivery is passive and limited by the single LP4 source and the power supply's own rating. The cable itself adds no active regulation, so total draw must stay within what the LP4 rail can supply continuously. No thermal or voltage management is built into the adapter.

Setup checks

Verify that your power supply has a spare LP4 connector available. Ensure the 12-inch reach suits the drive positions in your chassis. Confirm your drives use standard 15-pin SATA power inputs rather than another standard.

Questions about this item

Does the LP4-to-SATA power cable run hot or draw extra power when both drives are spinning all day?

The adapter is a passive cable with no active electronics, so it adds no measurable heat or power draw beyond the drives themselves.

What must my power supply already have to use this 12in LP4-to-2-SATA splitter?

Your PSU needs at least one free 4-pin LP4 (Molex) male connector to plug the cable into.

Will this Y-cable work with older IDE drives that I still keep in the same case?

The cable only provides 15-pin SATA power connectors, so it cannot power legacy 4-pin Molex IDE drives.
