Cons:Not cheap

Comment:
Not much to add here. This cable works as intended. It has good quality material and looks good and durable. The 90 degrees angled connector makes it easier and cleaner to connect hard drives inside my tower. I think it's a bit expensive even after a price match.

bought to have SATA cables match other cables in case being black and/or sleeved, looks great, works great, what else is there to say?

Silverstone 500mm 90 degree SATA III Cable
Cons:- Angled head sticks out a bit more than expected, making it harder to organize and fit my SATA cables

Pros:- High quality- Decent flexibility- Great price when PM'd
Comment:
This cable is great for everything it's meant for and is definitely higher quality than others I've used. The only issue I have is that the 90 degree angled end sticks out from the hard drives a bit too much; more so than other 90 degree SATA cables I've used. Makes it hard to fit all my cables nicely without sticking out too far. Maybe if my case was wider, it wouldn't be as much of an issue.

Silverstone 500mm 90 degree SATA III Cable
Cons:Angled connector protrudes from drive a bitA bit pricey for just a cable

Pros:Locks very securelyBraided, black - looks nice
Comment:
Very nice cables. Right-angled connectors are a must with side-mounted drives, at least for me. I'm always concerned that the side door will push on a straight SATA cable, putting upward or downward pressure on the drive connection and possibly damaging it or causing the connector to pop loose. Popping loose is less of an issue for modern locking SATA cables, but this means they can put even more pressure on the drive without popping out if they're kinked.A right-angled connector solves this issue. This cable meets the bill nicely. It looks good too with its all-black colour and braided cover. It locks in like no tomorrow - I'm not sure how they do that without the metal tab, I suspect very close tolerances on the plastic castings, but these cables lock in very well on both the straight and angled connections.I suppose the only issue I have with this is that the right-angled connector protrudes from the drive quite a bit. Fitting as flush as possible to the drive is what the right-angled connector is for in the first place, so this kind of defeats the purpose. However it doesn't protrude out as far as the SATA power connector so if you can get the power connector in without interference you can get this in. But my old nGear right-angled SATA cables these replace fit almost flush with the drive by comparison, though those were angled from the top and didn't lock at all.A word about marketing - any and all SATA cables made to any SATA spec (SATA I, SATA II and SATA III) meet SATA III speeds, so don't be fooled by deceptive marketing. You do NOT need "SATA III" cables for SATA III speeds at all. This is prominently featured on the packaging. I wish it wasn't. We don't need the silly cable bafflegab in the computer industry like in the audio industry, thanks. About the only change made to SATA cables was the locking mechanisms built into SATA II. This was a worthwhile addition, but there has been no change to the cables or electrical contacts themselves. Don't think you need to upgrade your cables to these to get SATA III speeds, upgrade them if you need right-angled connectors, really tight locking or just like the look.Just to check that everything was working well, I benchmarked both my SSD and my mechanical drive. As I expected, both tested identically to earlier benchmarks, so no speedup or slowdown over the old cables made in SATA I days.

Pros:works as described
Comment:
90 degree angle of the cable makes it easier to connect to the motherboard without the trouble of adjusting its position to the required place.
