Left Angled Sata cables

[SiM]

Hi Scan guys,

Just wondering if you can get any of these in... They are like right angled sata cables except the plug is upside down.

Cheers.

I shall ask for you on Monday Sim when our purchasing team are back in the office.

Is there any reason you want left angled cables rather than the usual right angled?

[TAKTAK]

i could do with some left angles as well

as for the reaseon... the right angled ones go the wrong way.......

(making it harder to tidy cables up, as i send all of my cables to the top of me case and then ontop of the opticals and down the back, where a right angle tries to send the cable down, making the whole job a lot more tedious)

Thanks Carlh

I need it because there are 6 sata connectors on the P5K premium, but 4 of them are covered by my 9800gtx so normal ones don't work. If I use right angled ones in the two Intel raid sata sockets then it blocks the two jmicron sockets. So I need left angled for two of the intel ones and right angled for the two jmicron ones.

I see your problem but just so you know the 6 SATA ports are all Intel.

Oh, my bad, I thought the black ones were different.... the jmicron one is for something else then i guess...

Some shorter SATA cables too maybe? Can get messy with 45cm cables if you have 2-3 drives in the bottom of the case

[SiM]

Any news Carlh?

Cheers

25cm and 30cm sata cables would be good.

I have rerequested an update from our purchasing team who are currently trying to locate suppliers.

Once I have an update I shall let you know

Oh well, so I guess these are hard to source over here... Well anyway, thanks for trying, Carlh...
If they are coming soon, please let me know, so I can add them to a pre-order that I just made...

Well my order has just been shipped and I will probably not order anything else from Scan for a while... so will just grab them from there...
I couldn't find these stocked anywhere in the UK... Thanks

EDIT: maybe these are actually called "left handed sata cables"
Actually, its £9 for 2 cables there! Rip off!

bad taste to post an alternative source, should PM him the link or something.

Normally I would agree with you, but if its for a item that scan doesn't sell then there should be no problem...
