Singular Expert Insight
This is a SATA data cable and does not supply power to the connected drive. A separate SATA power connector from the computer power supply is required for standard SATA hard drives, SSDs and optical drives.

Skip it if: You require a SATA power cable, an external eSATA connection or an angled connector for restricted spaces.
