I got a Turris Omnia Router, which I want to use as a NAS.

I also really like SATA SSDs, they are abundant (I have too many), never overheat (take that, NVME crap) etc.

The router is pretty tight, a SATA SSD fits in, but I need a cable to have the adapter 90° and a bit upwards.

Now I wonder, what adapter do I need? On AliExpress I find one with 1 or 2 SATA connections, 1 is probably best for sanity and reliability.

This one looks more sketchy, as it has 2 SATA sockets.

    Interesting, thanks!

    Could you elaborate on the power supply? I found such an adapter:

    With a small 7-pin SATA cable, do SSDs need additional power?

    The power supply is a typical laptop barrel jack with converter, so powering the SSD wouldnt be a good option
