Storage Solutions 2.5" HDD SATA cable fitment

I bought this WD Blue 320GB 2.5" HDD recently for my NAS. This HDD appears to have problems with standard SATA cable wherein the SATA cable fits quite loose.

Upon inspection I found that the female port (on HDD) is quite shallow thus not providing enough surface area for a good mechanical fit.

My question is ,
1. has anyone faced this problem with other brands or models?
2. Are there any SATA/Power combo cables for 2.5" HDD ?[DOUBLEPOST=1397376120][/DOUBLEPOST]Found this on ebay : http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=151275545752.

Sent a note to seller to check if it works with any SATA HDD.[DOUBLEPOST=1397458305][/DOUBLEPOST]Found this selling on Sell/Trade forums : http://www.techenclave.com/communit...a-hot-swap-2-5-inch-hdd-cage-2-pieces.164466/
