LPSATA4FM - A cost-effective, convenient solution
If you've ever built your own PC or made upgrades, you know how frustrating it can be not to have necessary connectors or compatible components. Don't fret - you aren't alone! Recently, Dell and HP ran into a similar situation (on a much larger scale) that required a StarTech.com hard-to-find solution, to provide a timely, cost-effective workaround.
Specifically, our LP4SATAFM 15-pin to LP4 Power Adapter saved the day, by providing a simple way to power LP4 connected drives using a SATA power connection. On an individual scale, replacing a hard drive for compatibility with a provided power supply or vice versa would be relatively inexpensive, however when you're dealing with the volume of customers and system builds that industry leaders such as Dell and HP are serving, replacing a single part can become a very expensive proposition that impacts the impressive value that is passed to customers.
