Well, I've got new Samsung 850 Evo SSD, and I can't use the SATA Cables from my PSU for some reasons ... Well I bought 'Motex TO Sata adaptar', I can connect the 'Motex to Sata adaptar' to my PSU then connect it to my SSD ? I mean, it will not damage the SSD because of the voltages or something? If it won't damage anything, It will work ok with this adaptar ? I'm not sure about it and I hope you can help me with this ..
Thank you very much !!!

If you can't use the SATA Cables from your PSU, a "Molex to SATA Adapter" is safe to use and shouldn't cause any problem to your drive.
Plus, technically, a SSD requires less power than a HDD, but it still uses the same connector. No worries.
