Hi guys,

i need your help again.

my sata cables keep coming loose from my HD, can you get anything that holds it on, i know why its happening, the routing of the cord is putting it under tension and it just pops of, i think i read somewhere that a certain brand of HD comes with a little connector that stops this happening…any ideas?

thanks in advance

Matt

Western Digital Secure Connect uses a stronger connection from cable to drive. Not too sure about the problem of the cables keep coming out though, never experienced it myself. Sorry.

A drop of hot glue will hold it there :cool:
