Vszerda 4Pin FDD Floppy Female to 15Pin SATA Female Adapter Cable 18AWG 15cm

SKU CH-3XQ6-JGHCW

Converts a floppy power connector to a SATA power plug for ITX builds using 18 AWG wire over 15 cm

  • Converts 4-pin floppy power to SATA for modern drive compatibility
  • 18 AWG wire gauge supports reliable power delivery
  • 15 cm cable length suits compact ITX builds
  • Black, red, yellow conductors simplify polarity identification
  • Female SATA connector enables direct drive connection without extra adapters

ITX power adapter cable

This 15 cm adapter converts a 4-pin floppy power connector into a 15-pin SATA power plug using 18 AWG wire. It lets small-form-factor builders connect SATA drives to legacy power supplies that only expose floppy leads. The short length keeps cable routing tidy inside compact chassis.

Upgrading from floppy-only PSU outputs

The cable replaces the need for a power supply with native SATA connectors when only floppy outputs are available. The jump is worth it when adding SSDs or hard drives to older ITX systems without swapping the PSU. It bridges the gap without requiring modular cable sets.

Supports one SATA drive per adapter

Each adapter powers a single SATA device from one floppy connector. Headroom ends at that 1-to-1 limit, so multiple drives need multiple floppy leads and separate adapters. The 18 AWG conductors handle typical drive currents within the short 15 cm run.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the 15 cm cable and 1 cm transition need between the floppy header and the SATA drive?

The cable is 15 cm long with a 1 cm transition section, so allow at least that combined length for routing between the 4-pin floppy connector and the 15-pin SATA power port.

Which way round do the 4-pin floppy male and 15-pin SATA female connectors go?

Plug the 4-pin floppy male end into the motherboard or PSU floppy power header and the 15-pin SATA female end into the SATA device; the keyed shrouds prevent reverse insertion.

When should the 18 AWG adapter be replaced?

Replace the cable if the insulation cracks, pins become loose or corroded, or the 18 AWG wires show heat damage after extended use.
