Sata Power Cable Length Limit

[tallywho]

Is there a limit on how long a SATA power cable can be? I have a work station that is specifically for cloning HDD's and SSD's. It sits far off to the side. I want to extend a set of SATA III data cables and a set of SATA power cables. I have found 6 foot SATA III cables with out any issues. I however don't see anything longer than 20 inches for SATA Power Extension cables. I'm extremely handy with a soldering iron and have no problem cutting an existing extension cable, but was hoping to find an existing extension that was that long already.

Use case -

Only one drive per SATA power cable will be plugged in. Each set of cables will be on their own SATA power. I can't imagine SSD and HDD's taking more that 25 watts a piece, which over 6 feet on the power cord should be fine.

Thanks for reading this any incite would be very helpful as to whether this is a good idea or not. I wan't both cables to be 6 feet as i wan't it away from my work space

Long data cables would have more issues than long power cables in all honesty.

Dont see any issue at all extending the power cables

The singular reason you can't find any premade ones is simply because there isn't a market for them
