...fux0r.
04:20
< ToxicFrog>
The CF-6000 doesn't have any molex connectors.
04:20
< ToxicFrog>
I really should have realized this earlier
04:21
<@Vornicus>
"molex"?
04:22
< ToxicFrog>
Four-pin internal power connector?
04:22
< ToxicFrog>
Used for hard drives, optical drives, AGP video cards...
04:22
<@Vornicus>
oh /that/
04:22
< ToxicFrog>
Notably not used for PCIe video cards or floppy drives. I don't know if SATA drives need them.
04:22 * Vornicus doesn't have any SATA, so can't tell you.
04:22
< ToxicFrog>
Right. Doesn't have any, because really, what would we do with them?
04:23
< ToxicFrog>
The drives are all attached to the SCSI backplane, which is wired directly into the PSU backplane; the motherboard draws all its needed power from the PSU backplane via ATX connector; and the expansion cage has its own power supply.
04:23
< ToxicFrog>
Unfortunately, this means installing my IDE drives will be...an interesting procedure.
04:26
< ToxicFrog>
Since I don't think there's enough room in there for a third power supply.
04:26
< ToxicFrog>
So either I'll have to put the IDE drives in a seperate machine, or work out how to wire two molex connectors into the PSU backplane.
04:29
< ToxicFrog>
It /should/ be a simple matter of attaching to pins 3, 4 and 10 on the mobo's connector...
04:35
<@Reiver>
SATA doesn't use them.
04:35
<@Reiver>
SATA uses a new kind of plug; but you can get adapters cheaply enough.
04:35
<@Reiver>
(It's the same power etc. Just a different plug.)
04:38 * ToxicFrog nods.
04:38
< ToxicFrog>
Moot point, since I don't have SATA.
04:39
<@Reiver>
Still useful to bear in mind. :)
04:39
< ToxicFrog>
At any rate, I figure that with two molex connectors (trivially easy to acquire when you have three spare PSUs) and some good stiff wire, I can do this without even needing solder.
05:41 * Reiver hrm.
05:41
<@Reiver>
What power rating is the PSU?
