Question Best U.2 (SFF-8643 to SFF-8639) cable?

[4EvrYng]

I need to connect my future IcyDock ToughArmor NVMe enclosure (https://www.icydock.com/goods.php?id=308) to my motherboard. Enclosure has SFF-8639 connector on its side.

I’m looking for best -quality- SFF-8643 to SFF-8639 cable for it. Could you please point me in direction of brand that is considered best quality and which ones I should avoid quality wise (quality to me is much more important than price)?

Thank you in advance!

Amazon.com

one side will connect to your M.2 slot, the other goes to the Icy.

Just remember, unless your board has u.2 port, u will need a m.2 to u.2 adapter, which that cable i linked has built in.

Thank you! I already have U.2 port on mb so I am looking for just cable. What I am trying to find out though which one of many brands available on Amazon/elsewhere is considered -the best- and which ones I should avoid, not having experience they all seem equal to me. Do you happen to know, please?
