10GTEK SFF-8643 to SFF-8087 Mini SAS HD Cable, SAS 3.0 to 2.0, Compatible with RAID Controllers, Servers, Backplanes and Hosts, 100-Ohm, 0.8-m(2.6ft), 2 Pack

I like these cables and they worked well in my 2U 12-bay setup. I ended up swapping them out for SuperMicro cables only because I was trying to debug write errors in my TrueNAS zfs pool. I'm pretty positive the errors originate from the no-name backplane and not the cables, as I still received errors with the SuperMicro ones.In any other system I'd feel comfortable buying and using these.

Using in Norco 4224 case with Adaptec 72405 raid card. All 4 I purchased work great.

Used this in a homelab server. Was exactly the advertised length. Working good for over a month now.

Started out with a breakout cable SFF0-8643 to 4 SATA cables connected to a PCIe SATA card. The initial setup did not work for me. I could not see the drives in the Bios nor could I see them in the Unraid OS. I ordered this cable along with an SFF-8087 PCIe x4 SATA card. Saw the drives in the Bios but could not see them in the Uraid OS. Getting closer. Finally, after poking around in the Bios, I found the IOMMU setting was enabled. After I disabled the IOMMU in the Bios, the Unraid OS could see the drives and everything is working as expected. Was afraid that the cables were too long but found that the 2.6ft length is exactly what I needed.

This unit worked great to enable connectivity between my LSI 9300-8i and Norco 4220 backplanes. The 0.5m length was enough cable to route through from the pci-e card to the backplane connector.

The cables work well and for a decent price.

Solid cabling and fast delivery.

i have a 24bay NAS with two HBA cards so i needed cables to connect to the backplane. this worked perfectly, no issues since installing in sept last year
