Will your SATA Hard Drive Cable that comes with this kit compatible with any of the Samsung SSD 840 Series? SATA HD Cable had disquieting reviews.

Yes, I upgraded a Mac Mini to a Samsung 840 Series using the provided cable and it worked just fine.

EDIT - Yes, the SCA4000100 works with the Seagate TB adapter. It turns out the seller Amazon used to fill this order sent the right box but the wrong drive inside. Amazon refunded me and I ordered from a seller with a higher customer feedback rating, so hopefully sometime next week I will be able to use my adapter. I'm sitting here with the STCA4000100 HD and the Seagate TB adapter. Unless I am missing something, there is no way that this HD fits into this adapter. Nothing pops or pulls off the HD either.

I've connected 8 x HGST 4TB NAS drives without issue. The one issue I did have is connecting two of my Samsung 850 Pro SSD drives (a 128GB and a 256GB). Neither drive was recognized when connected through the back plane. The drive sleds support mounting 2.5" drives, but for some reason these SSDs would not be detected. I confirmed the SSDs worked fine when using the same SATA cable connected right to the ports.

I can see nowhere that it can be used with this unit. The specs show SATA not solid state. I would say if the drive does not fit it won't. I can't speak for the way a SSHD stores its info compared to a SATA disk drive.

Yes it will work with any SATA drive. It is made to connect to an external SATA connector on computers that have this availible. This is the e-SATA end. The other end of the cable is a standard SATA connector just like the internal SATA cables.

it will work great on any desktop with that supports SATA. If your case doesn't have 2.5" mounting brackets, then you can either buy an adapter (as others have pointed out) or just use tape, velcro, or tie wraps to hold it in place anywhere in the case. There are no moving parts, and it doesn't need to be held in place that securely. I've had my SSD sitting loosely in the hard drive bay of my case for years without any problems.

In general, SATA II and III cables should be no different. The reseller kit includes "desktop" installation parts: power/data cables, mounting bracket and screw. None of which, i'd guess, will be needed for iMac. If you would directly replace your existing 3.5" drive (SATA) with this Intel SSD, i think that should be straightforward as the same cables may be used. Just the mounting may be different.

Yes. Sata 3 drives are backwards compatible with Sata 2 Connections and vice versa. But you'll be capped with Sata 2 speed.

Yes this cable is usable with any sata hard drive, including old style sata. It is backwards compatible.

Yes, it comes with SATA cables. Don't pair this MB with a cheap power supply, get a good one, for plug-in/configurable SATA power feeds.

We had to buy a new cable to fit the SSD. It has a different size cable than a standard drive.

Yes, with SATA cables... I had to buy one extra SATA cable (I use 3 SATYA devices: LG BD-RW internal drive, VERTEX 4 128GB OCZ SSD and a 500GB WD Caviar Blue HDD)

Yes. It's the same connection for all sata ports and they are backwards compatible.

I am not fully sure what you are asking, but anything that looks like a 2.5" SATA drive should fit. I have a Crucial SSD in mine and it fit without any problems. So if it has the same form factor as a 2.5" SATA drive, or has mounts that make it that form factor... and it is SATA it should work

Yes The cable you need is provided along with the Anker HD enclosure unit. Worked perfectly for me. You could still use the cable to connect the old SSD as an external drive, so it's not necessarily a one-time use.

Yes, it will work with mostly any SATA device, however, the form factor is more geared toward optical drives. you would need adapter rails to get a hard drive to stay put in the casing.
