Worked well, but doesn’t come with IR sensor wire and bracket .. however the laptop works well without the IR sensor wire.. there is a way to pull the IR sensor wire from your original cable and attach to the replacement cable, but it is very delicate job, and maybe left to a professionalOverall, for $10, I am happy that I don’t have to buy a new laptop!!

I have a 2012 laptop and got the dreaded White fold questionable screen. I knew hard drive worked testing on another computer. I could not find the answer. Some were saying it was bad hard drive or motherboard. I researched youtube and saw this guy said he got this cable off amazon to fix his drive issue. When you normally get a white screen on Macs it's having communication issue from hard drive or hard drive could be bad. Got this, followed the install and it was easy peasy. Worked first time as it booted. Saved me tons of oney. Thanks for making this sata cable still!!

Works fine out of the box. Easy to install if you’re familiar with the delicate nature of apple internal hardware. This one can be confusing as you have to crease the cable in several places during install, but the creases are marked. Just follow the pattern on the cable you are replacing.

Item arrived on time and in brand new condition. It wasn't as easy to install as a typical RAM upgrade, but with the help of an online video tutorial this product fit and made my computer work again. Only time will tell now if it'll stand up to daily use.

Knew I needed this when I googled my laptop issue. Ordered this part and watched the youtube video on how to install! SIMPLE! and totally fixed my issue. Only hard part was seeing the teeny-weeeny yellow part to connect but I got it. THANK YOU!!!

Went to boot up the 'ol A1278 MacBook Mid-2012 and got the blinking folder with question mark. Found out these HDD cables are touchy and well known to go bad unexpectedly. Replacing it did the trick. Note the model number on your existing cable (it's on the backside of the ribbon cable) because there are two versions, don't get the wrong one.

Cable was as described, seemed to be oem quality, worked immediately and resolved folder question mark error. Tape was where it should be, I would recommend. I did not test ir receiver.
