Is there something to remove in order to plug in the SATA cable and the power cable??? Doesn't appear to have those slots!

It does have the ports needed for power and SATA and you do not need to remove anything. This item is a bare internal drive (not an external drive) and will not come with any cables.

How old is the hard drive you're replacing? If it was pre-2005, chances are it's a PATA or IDE drive rather than a SATA type. Is the original connector a large black plastic thing with 40 holes in it (2 rows of 20)? If not, then it's a SATA set-up, requiring 2 connections (one for power and one for data). Just make sure you align the connectors carefully, (even though they won't click in if they're reversed).

I ordered two of these and Im 100% positive it has the slots on the lower left corner on the back of the unit.

There wasn't anything to remove on mine. Look at pictures online to see where the slots should be

Both connectors? You mean the data and power connection? If so, then yes they are both SATA style connections.

there are 2 sata connectors on this power supply. They are rather short so if you have a huge case and several drives do not use this power supply. Also this PSU WILL NOT run a high end graphics card, this PSU is meant more for replacing old PSU units in older computers. I would not suggest you use this in a high end gaming or HDPC system!

It only has two SATA power connectors but they are on separate cables. This helped me because of the distance between the two sata power devices I was using. They were too far apart for another PS I was using that had two sata connectors but on the same cable. The other connections are standard molex, the motherboard 4 pin power connector (can't remember if there are one or two), and the 20+4 connection.

If i'm understanding your basic question. All the fans are connected to the power supply by the molex cable. I do not recommend doing this. But i spliced a bunch of stuff to get mines to fit and look clean. If not, just invest sata cables. It does have all fans included, but you may have to invest in some extra adapters to power them all.

You'll need to buy an adaptor -- without being powered the USB 2 ports don't work (at least for me). The adaptor is a couple of bucks... the good news is that the molex power connector on the device has both a male and female connector; you'll probably need a female SATA to molex power connector (these are relatively rare). It's too bad that the power connector on this device did not include a sata connector.

There is a hole in the bottom of its case. I placed it where I wanted it on top of the computer's case, marked the hole's location and bored a corresponding hole in the case - being sure to catch the metal shavings. Then, I bolted it in place. (I ran the drive cables up the back of the computer case where they are exposed and have been knocked loose.)

The power cable should already be on the power supply in the computer case. The drive comes with one SATA cable (I don't remember the exact length, but I recall it was about a foot long). I also bought a box with 10 or 12 spare SATA cables here on Amazon just in case.

Try returning it? I was very unhappy with my unit. The SATA connection was very loose and it was impossible to get a reliable connection.

i would like this answered too. by the video it looks like the "module" that unplugs from the hard drive leaves the sata connection open. if that is the case, then the thunderbolt adapter will be able to reach it and plug it just fine. the thunderbolt adapter connection sticks out so the only question would be if the drive allows enough space so that the two can connect.

No, I don't think so as the only connecting cable uses a specific USB 3.0 motherboard-capable connector. I do not remember seeing any ports for SATA connectivity.

My SATA slipped into the enclosure and plugged into the SATA plug built into the case; I didn't use the one on the ribbon. I also had to use the four small silver screws to secure the hard drive in the enclosure. It's hard to describe in words but here are a couple of links for you: (1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3BqviSl0YU (this video is a bit long but it will take you through the complete installation process and (2) http://sabrent.com/product-manuals/EC-UEIS7_Manual.pdf (has some detailed instructions and close up pics of the different connections).

and it is un-removable. You have 2 pleces to connect and one is power and other is sata cable. now you do have a master slave pin that you can adjust to your computer needs and reading the manual will help you for that

Do i neet to put 3 plugs?(SATA CABLE, LIKE 3.5"FDD POWER CABLE, IDE DRIVE POWER CABLE)

Yes, If you can not find where to plug in to, you need to split power off of a existing power connection of A hard drive or CD/DVD - ROM drive,Splitter cables are available, match to drive closes to location of board. I do not know the physical lay out or what type of drives are in your machine. type of drives are IDE, SATA The connector used on this board is for 3.5 floppy so you may have to go from Hard drive power to floppy power.

To be honest I cant remember exactly, but I do not remeber it having any SATA cables in the box. I bought some SATA 3 cables because I did not have any and I use a full tower case. So I would buy some just in case and make sure they have the metal clips not the plastic ones.
