Modular PSU different SATA cable

[Sh1rohige]

Hey guys, I recently bought a second hand semi-modular PSU (Fortron Aurum Pro 850W) and it didn't come with any SATA cables. My question is, can I use a different cable from another PSU? And if not, what can I do instead?

It depends. They may route the power differently through the plugs with a different cable.

IE.

On your PSU it may have say 4 pins that are 1,2 ground, 3,4 12v
On another PSU's cables, it may still have 4 pins but be 1,3 ground 2,4 12v
On yet another PSU's cables, it may be 1,4 ground, 2,3 12v.

Do not use cables that are not specifically made for your model PSU. I could find no cables nor pinouts for that PSU through my sources.
I'll suggest checking EBay and other on-line sellers often until something shows up.

I thought the same, I tried ebay and other sites for PC components, no luck so far. Anyway, thanks for the answers!
