PSUs with Sleeved SATA Cables?

There's lot's of power supplies out there with sleeved cables. But as far as I can tell, only OCZ seems to sleeve their SATA cables past the first connection and that's alot of bare cable running down your drive array.

See this? That's what I want. Anybody besides OCZ know what the words "fully-sleeved" means?

And yes, I know that Performance PCs and such will custom sleeve a PSU, I'm trying to avoid spending the money.

I bought a M12 500 last week and it did not have fully sleeved SATA power connectors. Only the portion from the PSU to the first connector was sleeved.

Other than looks, sleeved cables have no advantage, anyways.

By the way, the Seasonic was DOA. I've RMA'ed it today.

Have they changed the sleeving? Because the SATA power connector looks sleeved only to the first connect in this picture of the M-12 700watt.

I'm linking to that one because it's the highest wattage Seasonic available and I still don't think it will be enough to run the new rig I'm building. 8800GTXs in SLI with E6600 Dual Core plus three SATA drives and two SATA DVD Burners equals a minimum 800 watts IMHO.

It's too bad, because I love my current Seasonic PSU.
 
My Antec SP2.0 500W has fully sleeved SATA cables. The only cables that arent sleeved are the P4 12V 4-pin connector and the PSU Fan RPM monitor cable.
