ESATA --> SATA cables

[shadow_man]

Hi,

I can't find these in stock anywhere.

Anyone have any old cables lying around that I can buy / have? - trying to revive some old HP N36L units and squeeze in an extra drive.

I'm in CPT.

Thanks!

Like this?

I think he wants to go from the external esata port to a normal data connector that plugs into a drive.

Correct, top image. Already have powered catered for via molex --> sata splitter.

Basically the HP N36L's have an ESATA port on the outside of the server, which you can run a cable from --> reroute internally and then squeeze in another drive (provided you split the single remaining power connecter in two - hence the molex --> dual sata connector.)
