    Why are you not using a SAS Expander card or a HBA?

  • Added my SAS card info to the 2nd paragraph. Looking at @Gantendo's link I totally think that's the issue. I'm going to get some Kapton Tape. I wonder if there's an easier way to use the SATA power ports, adapt them to Molex first, then back to SATA , so that i can use all the rails on the PSU(4 separate), which otherwise there's only 1 rail of Molex conns there.

  • The easiest way is probably step 5 here: instructables.com/… but I do not like fire.

  • yeah the problem with #5 I only have one line of Molex connectors, which has 3 total. Imagine hooking 10-12 drives up on one molex line. its prob too much for the PSU. Thats why i want to use the 4 lines of SATA connectors somehow. I did see these amazon.com/ZZHXSM-15Pin-Female-Serial-Drives/dp/B0C52W2Q4J so i can adapt SATA to Molex, then back to SATA, but really??? So ill try to Kapton tape pin3 first, im almost certain that will do it. Commented Aug 29, 2023 at 16:59
