#60558 — SATA Power Cables

I have just re-cased a Lenovo TS140 that will be my home server. It worked 
first time at switch on! I think that may be a first for a new build or 
re-casing, must be learning. I did forgot to connect the front panel 
headers but the TS140 comes on as soon as power is applied so no problem.

I've had to use a couple of Molex/SATA converters for power, I wondered 
why I had a fist full of straight SATA power connectors, it's because they 
are as much use as a chocolate teapot!

I'm having problems sourcing them. It's a Seasonic modular PSU cable, six 
pin connector at the PSU end and 3 (4 if possible) angled SATA power 
coming off it.

There are a few on eBay but in China, loads of straight ones but I need 
angled.

Any suggestions as to good places to look please? Happy to search but I'm 
a bit out of touch as most things nowadays are built out of the bits box :-)

Though no-one can go back and make a new start, everyone can start from 
now and make a new ending.

And as soon as I posted this I found them on eBay from a UK supplier :-)

6 pin PCIe at the PSU end?

Thanks Andy :-)

I managed to find that and used the wording to find the 4 way version on 
eBay - and cheaper :-)
