My new Crucial MX500 500GB SATA 2.5" Internal SSD doesn't seem to allow SATA cables with the external metal clip thing to "click" into place, creating a loose connection. Can anyone recommend a cable that would fit correctly? From other threads it sounds like they do exist (with the click thing on the inside of the cable instead of outside), but I can't seem to find anything online. Anyone know what they're technically called?

Thanks!
 
Solution
SATA cables (1,2,3 foot long varieties) are quite inexpensive, and available at about any computer store in the world...

If you simply search for 'sata cables' in Amazon, you will see thousands....
