Hello.
I'm trying to connect my new DVD drive Asus DRW-24d5mt to PSU.
DVD ports: 15-pin SATA + 7-pin SATA
But my PSU is ancient. It's Corsair HX520 and it only has 5-pin molex connectors.
Now, I am not sure if I can plug this adapter to 5-pin slot, leaving 1 pin empty, will it work? Does it not cause any problems? This is 15-pin SATA to 4-pin molex adapter
Edit: Now as I'm realizing it, 4-pin molex would be too thick to even fit into 5-pin connector.
I will be needing something like this size, thinner version of molex kind of:
That confused me even more, which combination of cables I should use for this setup, please? Thanks.
