NORCO C-SFF8087-D SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 Internal Multilane SAS Cable

Pros: Nice braided sheath on cable. Molex-brand connectors. Fair price.

Cons: The retaining clip could be a bit better built for ease of operation. It holds on just fine, but removing it requires a precise grip. That could be a feature in some circumstances, but other cables I've used were a bit easier to remove and never got bumped off. They were much more expensive and that's why I bought these. Take this as an 'every product can use improvement' criticism, nothing swaying a purchase, unless you're going to be removing these several times a day.

Overall Review: Good length for most installs, perfectly functional, connecting an LSI card to a Supermicro case in my installation. I didn't look at the close-up pictures before I bought so I was happily surprised when I got braided cables. There's a Molex shrinkwrap part number on the cable, this may be an all-Molex assembly resold by NORCO.

Pros: These cables have sturdy Molex ends on them that have a solid connection to the wires themselves. There is also a mesh sheath running over the cables to protect from sharp case edges and fan blades. I've stripped more shielding from more cables with cable channels in cases than I care to admit, so this is a pretty welcome addition. The sheath ends are attached to the ends of the cables with a good bit of heat-shrink tubing, so you could easily remove it if you wanted to.

Cons: The protective sheath over the cables keeps them from making sharp bends, so if your case is tight, or you need to bend cables through a channel you're going to have trouble. Also, they are a little on the expensive side. Other sites have roughly the same cables for less, but I felt loyal to NewEgg.

Pros: Excellent quality and functionality. perfect for the job.

Cons: a bit on the stiff side, does not bend well, bend radius is about 3/4-1"

Pros: High quality cable. Works well with my norco RPC-4220 case. I ordered 5 of these cables and 3 LSI SAS3081E-R cards (actually i ordered the intel rebranding of this card because it's 50 dollars cheaper) Cable connects firmly.

Cons: none. Does exactly what it's supposed to do.

Overall Review: Another reviewer mentioned this cable is a little stiff...while this may be true, i haven't seen many SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 cables which WEREN'T stiff. Using cable ties in the right place more than solve this issue for me.

Pros: Works well, connecting between a LSI SAS 9201-16i Host Bus Adapter Card (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816118142) and a SAS backplane on a Norco RPC-4224 server case (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811219038). I'll be getting more of these to fill the remaining slots.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Cable length seems perfect, no excess length lying around.

Pros: using these between my Norco 4220, Chenbro CK13601, and Adaptec 5805. no complaints.

Cons: none

Pros: Reasonable price. Worked great between my Adaptec 5805 RAID card and the backplanes in my Norco RPC-3216 cases.

Cons: None that I can think of.

Overall Review: I don't really get how other people can complain about the length of this cable when it is specified before you even buy it?? Do your homework people and don't discredit it because you failed to.

Pros: did what I needed

Cons: like 1 or 2 inches longer would have been good
