Sorry for the additional question, but I wasn't sure if the SATA power connector was warping excessively. With the AeroCool Streak case, the SSD is installed inside, and the SATA cable appears to bend a lot because of the angle toward the case. Could this pose any risk? Your concern is welcome!

I kept my SATA power cables at odd angles.

It's fine, but I would have used a straight connect, not a 90 degree, for my OCD.

I understand, thanks! Since there are no straight connectors, I had to pick between a SATA extension with a straight link or just bending it myself. I’m choosing the latter because I don’t want to waste time ordering another cable.
