Special SATA Cable Needed?

#1 Post by sphere3923 » Sun Jun 16, 2024 2:31 pm

Hi everyone,

I'm about to purchase a UHD friendly Blu-ray drive and I'm wondering about the SATA cable adapter. Do I need a special SATA cable adapter mentioned in the Ultimate Guide, or is a regular one sufficient?

Thanks in advance for your help!

If your connecting to a motherboard directly SATA to sata any SATA cable will do.

If your going to USB I would recommend the vantec dx2.

Thanks for the info! Just wondering, is the LG WH16NS40 compatible with this enclosure?
