Hehehe...Yeah, I know :oops: and I'm sorry for this...I was just quite busy lately! :-k

And beside that...someone had to revive this thread... :lol:

Now back tp topic...I think that mainly for motherboards where the SATA connectors are located on the edges of the motherboards, than...90-degree connectors are much better! :?

90* are nice and prefered , but I use both depending on my situation (mother board and the sata placement) .
* i7 5930K @ 4GHz 1.085v - Corsair H100i GTX - Asrock x99 OC Formula 3.1
* Sandisk Extreme Pro 480gb - HGST NAS 3TB - 2x WD Blue 1TB - 32gig Crucial 2133 - EVGA 980 Ti Classified - Corsair 780T/Seasonic 760 Platinum
* LG 34" Ultra Wide - Hanns-G HZ281HPB 27.5" - LG WH16NS40 Blu Burner - SoundBlaster Z - Klipsch 4.1's/Altec center channel
* Windows 8.1 Pro/Windows 10
* Retired game rig i7 920 @ 3.9 - EVGA x58 - still going strong!

Same situation here, so I would have to go with straight since they wouldn't need as sharp a bend in them. The right-angle connectors would be great for traditional style drive mounts for those doing cable management... so I didn't vote. Depends on the case in question. :)
