Review on 🔗 StarTech.com 18in Dual Drive Ultra ATA IDE Hard Drive Cable - UDMA 66/100 - 1.6 ft - IDE66, Gray by Omar Svagera

the one I received does not fit the Xbox at all in length or orientation. I had to use the black connector to connect to the mobo (the other direction - the blue one - didn't work at all - then the cable didn't reach from the DVD to the HDD). When connecting the black end to the mobo, the other connectors face the wrong way when connecting to the DVD drive and HDD, so you have to twist it. And then the length from DVD to HDD is NOT enough and you can't bend down nicely to get there. the cable has worked so far, twisted the hell out of it and the end on the mobo (blue) MUST go into the hard drive. Are these reviews made up or did I get a completely different cable? the one I got is 18" and the original one is 24" so I'm calling BS (although there are reviews that it fits). I'm sure it will work fine as a regular IDE cable, but it will NOT fit properly. in xbox in general, it is not for nothing that there are no photos of successful customer installations here, in contrast to other cables of the right length.
