jtovar Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Hi All, I have a ton of brand new 18" sata cables that I don't need. My company threw them out and since I've beed a big fan of the Unraid server for the past few years, I thought maybe some people building their servers could use them. The cables are completely free, but I expect anyone who needs them to pay for shipping. I have several of the small USPS Priority boxes, which were free to me as long as I ship Priority, but the cheapest it is to ship using those boxes is around $5.00 as long as it stays under 1 pound. So if you want me to pack the box with as many as I can under 1 pound, then you can pay $5.00 and I'll ship them out. Another option is to pay for the bubble wrap envelopes and the shipping and I'll ship them USPS parcel post. I'm not sure what the price of the envelopes are or what shipping would be, but if interested, let me know. You are welcome to request as many as you need, but be reasonable as I'd like to have enough go around. Let me know... Quote Link to comment
queeg Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Are they locking sata cables? If so, I'd like 5. Quote Link to comment
jtovar Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 They snap in, but don't have the little metal locking tabs on them. I believe the ones I have are from 2 different vendors...or at least they are 2 different styles(See attachment.). Quote Link to comment
queeg Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I'm going to pass. I've already got extra's that don't have the latch. Quote Link to comment
Rajahal Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Fantastic, thank you! Sent you a PM. Quote Link to comment
jtovar Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Looks like 15-19 can fit in a box and stay under 1lb. So if you want anywhere up to 19 cables, just cover the $5.00 USPS Priority shipping and I ship them to you. Shoot me an email if interested. Joseph Quote Link to comment
PhilH Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Just sent a PM if you have anymore of these cables. Thanks Phil Quote Link to comment
jtovar Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Quick update.... I had to raise the price from $5.00 to $5.50 because Paypal dinged me for the transaction and then when I went to pay for shipping, the left over deposit didn't cover the $5.00 shipping. Anyways, there are plenty left. If you want more than 1lb, let me know your zip and I can calculate the shipping for you. Quote Link to comment
jtovar Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Are they locking sata cables? If so, I'd like 5. Hi Queeg, I went through the whole bag and there are some with the little metal latches on one end. I only have 24 of those type. If you're still interested, let me know. Quote Link to comment

Hi Queeg, I went through the whole bag and there are some with the little metal latches on one end. I only have 24 of those type. If you're still interested, let me know. I'd love some of those. Are we doing it by the pound or by the count? 6 or 8 would be great. Quote Link to comment
jtovar Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Whichever you like, if you need/want more than 8, that's fine. I was just letting people know that 15-19 of them is about 1 lb and that's what will fit for the $5.50 price. But, if you don't need that many, then it'll leave extra for those that want them. So, if you want more than 8, that's perfectly fine. Quote Link to comment
Rajahal Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Cables received! Thanks jtovar, you rock! Also thanks for the mixture of long and short cables, that should be helpful. One of the shorter cables had a lock on one end, but not both ends. A bit odd, but still useful. Also, if you need me to Paypal you an extra bit of money, just let me know. I don't want you going in the red on my behalf. Quote Link to comment
jtovar Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 Hi Rajahal, Glad I can help. As for extra money, don't worry about it. If you sent me another $0.35, Paypal would charge me $0.45 Quote Link to comment
PhilH Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Paypal sent. Thanks again... Phil Quote Link to comment
