  • Our take on the StarTech Slimline SATA-SATA/LP4

    This is a slimline SATA data cable with an added LP4 (Molex) power lead, so one run feeds a slim optical drive both data and power. It is aimed at people building or repairing small-form-factor PCs, mini-ITX cases and laptops that use slimline SATA drives. The flat, thin cable routes easily in tight spaces, and the 1.64 ft length suits short internal runs. It is unshielded and has straight, unangled connectors, so it is a basic fix rather than a premium cable; buyers choose it for the specific slimline-plus-power combination rather than for build quality.

    Pros
    • Combines slimline SATA data and LP4 power in one cable
    • Thin flat profile routes well in tight cases
    • Short 1.64 ft length avoids excess cable
    • Straightforward plug-in install, no adapters needed
    • Red color is easy to spot inside a case
    Cons
    • Unshielded, so not ideal near heavy interference
    • Straight connectors can strain in tight bends
    • No latching clips on some slimline plugs
    • LP4 power lead is wasted if your board has no Molex output

    • LengthPraisedThe short run is described as right for small-form-factor builds.

    Questions and answers

    What devices does this cable connect?
    It links a slimline SATA optical drive to a SATA port on the motherboard and to an LP4 (Molex) power connector. It is not for standard 3.5-inch hard drives.
    Do I need a Molex power connector on my power supply?
    Yes. The LP4 lead must plug into a Molex output. If your PSU or board has no Molex, the power side is unusable.
    Is the cable long enough for a mid-tower case?
    At about 1.64 ft it is meant for short internal runs. In a large case you may need a longer cable or an extension.
    Does it support SATA III speeds?
    It is a passive SATA data cable, so it carries whatever the drive and controller support. Shielding is absent, so keep it away from power cables where possible.
    Are the connectors angled?
    No. Both ends are straight, which can matter in tight corners where a right-angle plug would fit better.
    Where is the StarTech Slimline SATA-SATA/LP4 cheapest?
    At Newegg, for $20.99, as of our latest check.
