Description

StarTech SATAPOWADAPR SATA Power Adapter Cable

Overview

The StarTech SATAPOWADAPR is a 6-inch adapter cable designed to convert a legacy 4-pin LP4 power supply connector into a standard 15-pin SATA power connector. This is essential for integrating newer SATA-based hard drives, SSDs, or optical drives into systems that only feature older LP4 power outputs, such as some industrial PCs or older server chassis. The 18 AWG wire gauge ensures sufficient power delivery for most 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA devices.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with any system providing a 4-pin LP4 power connector from its power supply unit. It connects to any SATA power device, including 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA HDDs, SSDs, and SATA optical drives. It is particularly useful for retrofitting older workstations or specialized equipment that have not been upgraded with modern power supplies.

Installation Notes

The connector style is straight on the LP4 end and right-angle on the SATA power end, which can aid in cable management within tight enclosures. The PVC jacket material offers flexibility and durability for typical internal system routing. Ensure the LP4 connector from the power supply is firmly seated before powering on the system.
