A 270-degree iSATA cable is just a variation on the theme of a 90-degree iSATA cable. All the mobo manufacturers recommend 90-degree iSATA cables for the optical drive, as it is generally at the very top of the case. However, many PC-type cases support three optical drives and six hard drives. Whether the PSU can accommodate that is a whole 'nother matter. I DO have one machine which has three optical drives ... two regular burners and a Blu-Ray burner. It has two HDs, too ... one (500 GB) for 10.6.7 and one (1.5 TB) for containing the results of DVD rips. Anyway, I see no particular value for 270-degree iSATA cables, and slightly more value for 90-degree iSATA cables. For most purposes, I use all 0-degree iSATA cables. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
