Digital camera reviews of Syba SY-CAB40007 Molex 4 Pin to 2x 15 Pin SATA Power Cable (5.5 Inches)
Digital camera Review: Molex 4 pin adapter very loose
Summary: 1 Stars
It took a good ten minutes to finally get this to plug in. The issue is with the pins in the Molex plug. They're hollow and loose so they do not go in straight. Trying to force them in results in crushing the pin, and forcing 1 or more out the back of the connector. I would not recommend this particular brand/model.Digital camera Review: Nothing fancy, but it does its job well.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this product for about 6 months now and I use it to power sata hard drives when I connect them to my computer externally via a USB/SATA&IDE bridge and MOLEX/AC power adapter. With all of the wires running everywhere and especially during storage, adapters like this one take a beating and my last one came apart. This one is going strong and doesn't show any weaknesses as far as construction or quality.Digital camera Review: Poor Quality
Summary: 1 Stars
The pins refused to line up so I could plug it in, when I tried to straighten them the wire separated from it's pin. Very poor quality.Digital camera Review: Probably not where I'm willing to let quality slide..

Like so many items I look for on Amazon, I selected this product because it specifically met my needs, and it was at a no frills price. What I expect from an item represented on Amazon is to be able to trust that I will always find a product that performs as advertised, and disappointment in the product won't be an issue regardless of the purchase price, or it wouldn't continue to be sold on Amazon. This is a rare occasion that I have been disappointed in something I received from Amazon, and I hope they pay attention to reviews so they can know that weak products in turn weaken their own image. This connector was the right price if it performed as expected. Instead, this is kind of a cheap imitation type product I came to expect from auction type sites before I started making my purchases on Amazon. Specifically, the pins in the 4 pin side, are so loose, that they flimsily move around in the connector, making it very difficult to line up with the connector in the PC. That condition only highlights the very weak metal the pin is formed from, which then crushed as I tried to line up the pins of the connector. Furthermore, even upon making a successful connection, it was immediately clear that there was no intention of a well fitting plastic to plastic connection, leaving only the pins to hold the connector together. And as you can guess from the earlier problem, the pins are weak and aren't going to be holding anything together. In the end, I do not want a replacement of this connector, because what I would receive is something that I would be nervous about connecting two $100 hard drives with, always wondering if I will be dealing with lose connection, and the performance loss, product damage that could occur as a result. I trust Amazon products, and I hope this type of product does not become a common problem. I will be looking for a different one I guess, at my cost.Digital camera Review: SATA Cable
