Ordered 3 and 1 was bad

Of course, I only started building after the return window closed. I ordered 3 sets in total. 1 was installed and worked fine for several months before a new build was started with two other cables and one of them failed. Wanted plenty of time to track it down to the cable. It happens I think, but it's a shame I can't get it back anymore.

Pros

SFF-8643: The new connector takes up less board space and offers higher connector density for internal hosts and devices. Hybrid versions of these new cables enable a seamless transition from 6 Gb/s to 12 Gb/s.

Cons
