Longer 8087 to SATA reverse breakout cables needed

[benwood]

I'm building a storage server in a Norco 4224 case. I need to connect the SATA ports on my motherboard (MSI FM2-A85XA-G65) with 8 SATA ports to the Norco's 8087 ports. I know I need 8087 to SATA reverse breakout cables in order to do so. I bought 2 Norco 8087 to SATA reverse breakout cables but they are too short to reach the 8087 ports when plugged into the motherboard's SATA ports. Does anyone know where I can find longer ones. They only need to be 2 or 3 inches longer. I looked on Google and can't seem to find any longer ones. Monoprice doesn't carry 8087 to SATA reverse breakout cables at all. Thanks.

No problem. You should be able to get SATA extension cables somewhere.

...and here I was hoping you were interfacing a SATA disk to an intel 8087 floating point processor from 1980!

1M is about the limit you are going to get.

I see you need a reverse:

Specifically, this guy. I imagine the 0.5m cable (~19") is long enough, but otherwise the 1m (~39") is definitely plenty. These are the same type of cables that OEMs use when they're assembling servers, they work fine.

Good catch. I had both of those open on my pc and pasted the wrong one.... after the edit.... /facepalm
