I have a few SATA cables, mostly red, most of them Alchemy "Premium
Modding Series", 30 cm SATA3. And all of the Alchemy cables have locks.
I have had no problems. I recently inspected some cables, and found no
visible evidence of corrosion. I have not had any problems with any
SATA installations.
Could those of you with SATA cables, please indicate whether they were
problematic or not, and locking or not?
Thank you.
