Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SIIG 3.3-Feet Serial ATA External Cable (CB-SA0111-S1)
Customer Review: Good quality = less headache
Summary: 5 Stars
The SIIG serial cables might be a little more expensive than the generic cables but well worth it.
These are also not as flexabile as the cheaper cables, which I now learned the hard way that they should be.
The SIIG's have moved at least 20 terabytes these last few months and have yet to find errors after verification.
I now also use then to verify if the external HDD has any errors and utility work.
Do your self a favor and bypass lower quality cables.
I saved a few bucks and lost gigs of data due to coruption and problematic connection issues with lower quality generic cables.
Trouble shooting is imposible with bad cabels.
Works fine with a 1 TB Western Digital and Segates, as long as the external and SATA HDW has decent BIOS.
Customer Review: Saved the Day !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased 2 1TB WD My DVR Expander external hard drives. My dvrs did not read the WD HDs and I tried over and over with no success. After reading customer reviews for the WDs I discovered that changing the stock cable to this cable had worked for some others that had the same problem. (yes, i too thought this seemed way too easy of a fix) But, YES it worked and both WDs were read the first time !!!
Note: One would think that a company like Western Digital would use a better cable rather than risk having problems ???
Customer Review: Good product
Summary: 5 Stars
The connectors fit well. I use it to connect acer aspire revo 3610 to 1tb fantom green drive. Honestly did not see any improvement with the speed over the usb connection, but did not really test it. Just upgraded because the esata is superior connection for hard drives. The cable is thick and not flexible at all, but it works well. Would have bought a cheaper cable but the most important with these cables is the connection and this one fit perfectly as some other reviews for different cables stated that they were having hard time to fit them.Customer Review: E-SATA cable
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this cable because the DVR expander drive reviews say that it doesn't work with the cable that comes with it.
This cable actually arrived before the drive did which was great.
Sure enough the drive did not work using the cable that comes with the drive. When I connected the cable that I bought, the Drive was immediately recognized. Everything works as it should and I couldn't be happier.
Customer Review: Good quality cable
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a good quality cable. I am using it to connect my WD MyDVR to my DirecTV HR-21. I had one problem with the e-sata cable that came with the drive, one of the programs was listed as recorded with a duration of 1 hour but when I tried to play it just ended. This could have been a problem with the drive itself as well but there is no way to tell. So far I have not seen that problem with this new cable.
