This is really only a concern if you have children around who may inadvertently eject the drive

Just hope you dont need to move the drives around or replace them very often because ejecting the drives is very difficult

All of my sata power cables are rightangle and it was a very tight fit to get bith plugged in there is a lot of stress on them because i had to squeeze and bend them in a tight spot and in order to allow sata data cables to plug in
