Title: L-Shape Sata Connector/Adapter?
Post by: Dreamre on Tue, 15 July 2014, 19:25:58

Hi guys,

I just got my hands on some sleeved MDPC-X sata connectors and I was wondering if any L-shaped adapters that exist. Prior to these cables, I was using sata cables that had a L-shape end. My case seems a bit tight for me to use the sleeved sata cables as is. I've attached an image as a reference...but does anything like that for sata exist?

Thanks!

This is the only one I could find. Check monoprice. Usually, they'll have whatever you need.

Awesome, this is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks! Now that I know this exists...I can start looking :D!

Edit-

Found it off eBay!

Thanks again for all your help! Sadly, monoprice doesn't carry this type of adapter.
