Creating eSATA port from ultrabay adapter

#1 Post by RTAdams89 » Tue Jun 30, 2009 3:50 am

I see that I can get an ultrabay hard drive adapter on ebay for less than $15 shipped. I was thinking about getting on and modifying it to provide a eSATA port. Two problems though:

1) The connector on the inside of the sled is female. All the SATA to eSATA cables I have found are also female. Any ideas where I can get a SATA gender changer, or a SATA to eSATA cable with a male SATA end?

2) Same problem as #1, except for the power cable. Any idea where I can get a male SATA power to molex cable?
