Sata Power

SATA Hard drive Power?

I just bought a western digital HDD that uses SATA interface. The HDD has a SATA power connector, SATA data connector to the motherboard, and MOLEX power connector. My question is, can I just buy the SATA data cable and use the MOLEX connector from my power supply to power the hard drive, instead of getting another SATA connector for the SATA power receptacle?

Yes, you can. Make sure the drive is detected by the BIOS.

The highest-quality metal and concrete grinding, smoothing, and cutting experience is well within your grasp with high-performance power tools from Bosch and Makita. These grinders offer truly superior 5" grinding options and results that are certain to leave you impressed and always satisfied.

Bosch's 1812PSD (6") angle grinder offers craftsmen a superior tool with the perks to entice even the most industrial craftsmen. Built with intense durability, the tool is reliable and long-lasting, and with Bosch's ServiceMinder brushes, the tool automatically stops when preventative maintenance is needed. This means, not only, that the tool will last nearly forever, but that for all of those years, the tool will also be working hard and healthy. With a vibration control handle the tool is uncharacteristically smooth and comfortable to use while still providing the big power (10 amps AC / 9amps DC) to champion the most heavy-duty metal and cement grinding applications. To ensure the smoothest performance the tool has a directed air flow system designed to divert dust and debris away from its vital components, and with epoxy coated field windings, the tool promises the utmost protection against metal debris. The 1812PSD ranges in price from about $110 - $160 rendering it not only a brilliant tool, but an affordable one as well.

Additionally, Makita's 9566CV (6") industrial cut-off / angle grinder is immensely powerful with seriously high-performance cutting and grinding action. With a 12 amp motor and five-speed variable speed control, the tool boasts vastly increased output power and the control to match that power to each application. Weighing only 5.3 lbs, the grinder is surprisingly compact, and with large carbon brushes built with an improved carbon brush material, your tool will perform better and longer. The tool's electronic limiter is designed to stop the motor immediately after being disengaged and to reduce accidental motor overload or burnout during aggressive projects; this ensures a safer, more quality grinding experience. Additionally, he tool's unique "labyrinth" construction, or series of complex channels, protects the motor and bearings from harmful dust and debris. Altogether, the grinder is surpassingly durable, with long-lasting high-performance, and ranging in price from about $155 - $165, the 9566CV, despite being the most expensive of this group, is still affordably priced.

Bosch's 1806E (6") angle grinder is one of the better grinders in today's industry offering craftsmen a superior tool with always impressive performance. A vibration control handle ensures uncommonly smooth and comfortable use, and producing 12 amps and 9,300 RPM of big power, the grinder masters nearly every metal and concrete grinding application. Built with Bosch's ServiceMinder brushes, the tool instinctively stops when preventative maintenance is needed; this enhances the longevity of the tool while also ensuring it will work happily throughout all of those years. For consistently smooth performance the tool also boasts a directed air flow system implemented to deflect debris and dust away from the grinder's most essential components, and with epoxy coated field windings, the grinder is practically impervious to those notoriously ruinous particulates. The grinder has a kick back stop to shut down the tool should its grinding wheel find itself in a sticky situation, and additionally offers soft-start, constant speed under load, and over-load protection ultimately rendering this beauty one the best grinding resources on the market. The 1806E is also sweet on your budget pricing at about $135 - $155.

Each of these 5" grinders is certain to bring you truly superior grinding results for years to come, and as they are corded, you can trust that all of these years will deliver max power and always impressive performance.
