This angled SATA adapter connects hard drives or SSDs in tight spots. The 90-degree connector keeps cables from bending sharply and stressing the port. This is helpful in small computer cases. It combines data and power into one SFF-8482 SATA adapter. Features and Benefits
- 90-Degree Connector - Lets the cable lie flat against the drive. This improves airflow and makes cable management neater inside a small case.
- Integrated 7+15 Pin Design - This SATA 22 pin male to female adapter provides both data and power. You won't need separate cables for your drive.
- Male-to-Female Extension - Works as a short SATA extension card. It makes it easier to plug in drives that are in awkward or hard-to-reach places.
- Universal SATA Compatibility - Works with SATA I, II, and III HDD and SSD drives. You can use it on a SATA II port or with the newest drives without issues. Applications
- Small Form Factor Builds - Good for Mini-ITX and other compact PC cases. Every millimeter of space matters for clean cable routing here.
- Server and Rackmount Systems - Makes drive installation and replacement simpler in dense server racks where access is limited.
- Custom PC Modding - Lets you place drives creatively and make internal layouts cleaner by redirecting SATA connections.
Key Attributes
This adapter is designed for use with SATA HDD and SSD Hard Drives, providing a 90-degree angled connection. It features a SFF-8482 SATA 7+15 22Pin Male to Female connector type. As an adapter, its primary function is to facilitate specific connections for memory storage devices. The 90-degree angle can be particularly useful in tight spaces, allowing for more flexible cable routing without straining the hard drive's pin connector.
Types of CompactFlash Cards
A compact flash card, often referred to as a CF card or compact flash memory card, is a type of memory storage device. While this product is a SATA adapter and not a compact flash card itself, understanding what compact flash cards are helps differentiate memory technologies. CompactFlash cards typically feature a specific form factor, often measuring around 43 mm by 36 mm, with thicknesses of either 3.3 mm or 5.0 mm, and a multi-pin connector. These cards are used for storing data, similar to how an SSD or HDD stores information.
Main Uses
This Card SATA Adapter is primarily used to connect SATA HDD and SSD Hard Drives. The 90-degree angled design allows for installation in configurations where a straight connector would be impractical or would put undue stress on the hard drive's pin connector. It is a useful component for builders or technicians needing to manage cables efficiently within a computer casing or server rack, ensuring a secure and reliable connection for professional memory applications.
Key Characteristics
This adapter's key characteristic is its 90-degree angled design, available as either a left or right angle. It features a SFF-8482 SATA 7+15 22Pin Male to Female connector, specifically designed for compatibility with SATA HDD and SSD Hard Drives. This product acts as an adapter, providing a practical solution for connecting memory storage devices in various configurations. Its robust pin connector ensures a secure fit, crucial for the reliable operation of the connected hard drive.

Product Type: SATA 7+15 22Pin Connector Adapter. Type: Cable Adapter. Q: What's the purpose of the 'left' and 'right' angled versions of this adapter? A: The angle directs where the connected SATA cable will run. A left-angled adapter points the cable to the left of the drive (from the connector's view), which is helpful for cable management in computer cases with limited room.. Q: What material is the adapter made of? Will it hold up to repeated use? A: The body is made of a standard hard plastic, and the pins are metal, designed to fit securely. It's built to handle the normal number of connections you'd make when building or upgrading a PC.. Q: Can I use this adapter with any standard 2.5-inch SSD or 3.5-inch hard drive? A: Yes, it's designed to work with any device that uses a standard 22-pin SATA connector. This includes all generations of SATA hard drives and solid-state drives.. Q: Will adding this adapter slow down my SSD's transfer speeds? A: No, it shouldn't affect performance at all. This is a passive pass-through adapter that just changes the physical connection angle, so your drive's speed will remain the same.. Q: I'm building a media server in a tight space. Can this help with routing? And would it work with a device that adapts a CFexpress card to a SATA port? A: Yes, its main job is to help with cable routing in compact builds. If your CFexpress card reader has a standard 22-pin SATA output connector, this angled adapter will connect to it just like it would with any regular SATA drive..
