Pictorial guide on modifying your PC power supply SATA power cable - Page 6

By Greig Mackenzie

Location, location

Measure out the location of the second last SATA connector.

Third last …and first, since I decided I need three as I have only three hard drives installed in the 3.5” drive cage and are unlikely to ever need a fourth. Of course, a fourth could be fitted in the future quite easily if required.

Push the wires firmly down into the connector using a screwdriver (not too sharp), ensuring the each wire is seated fully down in the bottom of the slots.

Er… oops, I seem to be missing some pics. Well, other than the final sleeving, that is it!
