That's eSATA to eSATA. OP wants eSATA+USB5v to eSATA powered - but OP: is the end device able to make use of that? If I am not mistaken, eSATA != eSATA powered.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Yes I have checked and it will work. Tested with a buddies cable and it worked fine. He does not want to part with it. I will be using it for a portable low power dell dvd rom.

OK - I'll look around but I haven't seen too many things eSATA to be honest.

I was looking at an esata to sata power cable on Wootware for 200 some change. But I doubt it will suit your application.

The china mall in Hillfox might have but I have no idea when next I will be there. If i see one, I'll let you know.

So Snotkop was live at the flea market on Sunday and as a result, I left Magalies a bit earlier to make it in time. Jeez, you should have seen the queue for autographs. Then, I went round he china mall and the guy there looked at me as though I was crazy - he has never heard of such a cable. Sorry - I tried.

 

[AshenP]

How was the show? No worries dude.. thanks for trying, appreciate it . I also had no luck. I think I will just import it.

How was the show?

[AshenP]

Sorry dude. That sucks

The cable in question is an eSATA+USBp to eSATAp - not quite the same thing. I have a SATA to eSATA in my one machine. I think I got it at esquire. Can't remember.
