Bundled cables not suitable for drive
Reviewed by Anonymous Review Posted 14/03/2010
Just installed and looks OK so far, but have not used it in earnest yet. Comes with some software for Windows (haven't tried as I use Linux), a sata cable and a molex to sata power converter. Do not rely on the sata cable and power converter. The connectors on the drive are quite close together and the supplied cables mouldings each overhang the connectors about 0.5mm meaning that although each can fit the drive individually they foul when attempting to connect both. The cables supplied with my motherboard and power supply do not suffer from this problem and work fine.
