Any Problem Using The Same SATA Cable For Both SSD and LED?

[ckesimli]

I have a Phanteks P400 case which has a SATA power connector for the front panel LEDs. My PSU is a semi-modular Corsair CXM-650 and I have installed both my SSD and the LED connector through the same cable (6 pin to 4x SATA).

Would powering both the SSD and the LED lead to any problems down the road? If so, I have another cable to power the LED seperately. If it is OK to do such an application, would it also be alright to connect further HDD to the same cable? The back of the case barely fits my 24 pin, so I would rather not add more cables than necessary.

Sorry if this was a dumb question, but could not find any info on google. Thanks.

you are fine. both led and ssd are low power usage compared to the cable size that the corsair uses on there psu. as long as your not using splitters it would be hard to overload that one cable.

Maybe when I get additional storage I will use a seperate cable just to be on the safe side. Thanks for your quick answer.
