Best place to source Angled SFF-8643 to 4 SATA connectors? (alien.top)

As the title implies, I am having difficulty finding a reputable source for 90 degree angled SFF-8643 to 4 SATA connectors. Most of the reputable sources such as Cable Creation, Cable Matters, Star Tech, etc. do not seem to have cables with angled SFF-8643 connectors and the ones that do, are only sold on AliExpress.

Would anyone have any recommendations on sourcing these cables?

That’s what I assumed. I was hoping there was someone else who has had similar experiences and who had their own successes.

I did have to buy some really tight right angled sata to sata cables for my nas build reciently. The choice was either something from silverstone I think it was randomly for over £20 for one. Or Aliexpress. I will say the were still quite exensive for one. £5 I think but they are good quality and work very well.
