The eSATA connectors are keyed differently, to prevent the use of internal SATA cables in external applications. However, the data transfer of the SATA subsystem will be limited to that of the slowest device. Unlike cables for internal applications, eSATA cabling must be shielded. Warning: This product may contain a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. So, for example, if a SATA 6 Gbps cable is connected to a SATA 3 Gbps drive and a SATA 1.5 Gbps controller, the drive will be limited to a transfer rate of 1.5 Gbps. External SATA (eSATA) cables are designed to connect external SATA devices to either external SATA ports or internal SATA connectors. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov While internal SATA connectors have an "L" shaped key, eSATA connectors use smaller, vertically offset keys.This shielded eSATA cable is certified to perform to SATA 6 Gbps performance standards. Each end is terminated in an eSATA connector for use with external SATA devices and controller ports only.Note that SATA 6 Gbps cables are backwards compatible and can be used with SATA 3 Gbps and SATA 1.5 Gbps devices.
