Does the job
Reviewed by Dan Houghton. Review Posted 09/01/2007

Powers my new SATA hard disk fine, but a warning to other owners of Dell Dimension 5100's and other computers with hard disk trays near the case: The cable sticks out a good few centimetres - I can't put the case back together as this cable is in the way.

Caution Dell Dimension E520 owners
Reviewed by Mark. Review Posted 02/04/2007

As noted by Dan, the cable functions electrically perfectly well and is good value. However, I also ran into the problem with closing the side panel , but this was on a Dell Dimension E520. Dell use a right-angle cable for their pre-fitted drive.
