SATA port connectors are standard so the Phantom gaming 4 uses the same connectors as other, AMD and Intel boards.
It is difficult to get to the lock, and You must always, start with the top row, that should be easy to unplug, aqnd will give You access to the bottom row.
Since most of these conenctors are produced, by Pegatron or Foxcon, all manufacturers, use the same ones.
Some SATA cables, have other metal locks, and you have to press much harder, to unlock then]]> Thu, 09 Mar 2023 23:07:20 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=25553&PID=103913&title=x570-phantom-gaming-4-design#103913 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=25553&PID=103753&title=x570-phantom-gaming-4-design#103753 Author: moreje

Is there anybody else condifering that design of Phantom Gaming 4 design is strange? especially considering SATA ports positionning?
I use all the 8 available sata ports.
the orientations of the ports , towards the side of the MB making them quite impossible to access when you want to plug or even worth unplug a cable with lock element.
It is imposible for me to access and press the lock and I've spent minutes and minutes to unplug my cables, with the risk of breaking the port....

Am I the only one? or maybe someone has a solution to reduce this risk?
