Identify SATA cable
by upnort from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4W3RZ)
This is not Linux specific. Just hardware.
Is this SATA cable vendor specific or generic?
The only identifier is WD, which probably means Western Digital.
I'd like to know the proper name for ordering.
The important part is the highlighted "plug" that fits into the hard drive. The plug is nice to prevent cable movement if the SATA connector on the HD is cracked or loose.
Thanks. :)
