Question:

Does SATA 3.0 and 6.0 use the same power cable?

I'm building a new computer and i have a SATA 6.0 HDD picked out but the PSU says it has SATA power cables, i was just wondering if the power connectors were the same across the board from SATA 3.0 to the new SATA 6.0.

Answer:

sata power is all the same.
same interface cable, and same power source cable. YOu just have to make sure the motherboard has a 6.0 gbs slot. I just built a PC with one of these. Not a HUGE improvement, but startup is a few seconds faster.
