Vszerda SATA to Molex LP4 & SP4 Y cable 8 inches

SKU CH-JRX5-4KKEZ

Converts a SATA 15pin power connector into both Molex LP4 and SP4 plugs for IDE or floppy drives using 18AWG copper wire

  • Powers legacy IDE and floppy drives from a modern SATA supply
  • 18 AWG copper conductors carry 12 V and 5 V reliably
  • 8 inch length keeps cable routing tidy inside the case
  • Y splitter feeds both LP4 and SP4 devices from one 15 pin connector
  • UL listed materials meet recognised safety requirements

SATA power to dual Molex adapter

This 8-inch Y cable converts a single SATA 15-pin power connector from a PSU into both an IDE Molex LP4 and a floppy SP4 4-pin female connector. It is built for desktop or server builders who still run legacy IDE hard drives or floppy devices but only have SATA power leads available. The 18AWG copper conductors are UL Listed and rated for 12V and 5V devices.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous operation the 18AWG copper wires deliver stable 12V and 5V rails to both connected drives without voltage sag. The UL Listed construction ensures the insulation and conductor cross-section meet safety margins for constant current draw typical of spinning mechanical drives. No active cooling is required on the cable itself.

Compatibility checklist

Verify that your power supply has a free SATA 15-pin male connector and that the target devices use standard 4-pin LP4 or SP4 sockets. Ensure the 8-inch reach spans the distance between the PSU lead and both drive bays in your chassis. Confirm the combined current draw of the two drives stays within the PSU SATA rail limit.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 AWG copper conductors handle continuous 12 V and 5 V loads without overheating?

The 18 AWG copper wire is UL listed and rated for the 12 V and 5 V rails that IDE Molex LP4 and SP4 devices draw, so sustained operation stays within safe thermal limits.

My power supply only has SATA 15-pin connectors left — will this plug straight in?

Yes, the male SATA 15-pin end connects directly to any standard SATA power port on the PSU, splitting into one IDE Molex LP4 and one SP4 4-pin female connector.

Can I run a legacy IDE hard drive and a floppy drive together from a single SATA power lead?

The Y-splitter provides both an LP4 and an SP4 plug from one SATA 15-pin source, letting you power an IDE drive and a floppy drive simultaneously.
