Faulty SATA cable still faulty.

Mein Problem

I've run into this problem a bunch of times across several MBPs. I don't know why I keep running into faulty SATA cables, but at this point I'm a pro at replacing them.

Meine Reparatur

The repair went well, but the cable has failed again. I'm not looking at other vendors for a different cable.

Mein Rat

The repair is very easy. It's a little finicky, but not too bad. I would suggest some electrical tape as insulating between the cable and any part of the casing that it might be rubbing up against.
