## Long description

The StarTech.com SATA Cable SATA18RA1 is an 18-inch (0.457 m) Serial ATA cable featuring a standard straight SATA receptacle on one end and a right-angled (90°) SATA receptacle on the other.

Advantages
The right-angled SATA connector allows installation of SATA drives in tight or hard-to-reach spaces while the thin, flexible cable improves airflow inside the system chassis. The cable uses a standard 7-pin SATA interface on both ends and is constructed for reliable data transfer and long-term use. StarTech.com backs the cable with a lifetime warranty.
Suitable for
Internal connections between motherboard/controller and 2.5" or 3.5" SATA drives
Installing drives in compact cases or rack-mounted servers with limited clearance
