    SATA Power Cables...

    Hey Guys,

    Bought a system from Jonny on Hexus recently, everything great, thanks lad. One query someone might be able to help me with...

    It has a Thermaltake Purepower 480W Butterfly PSU. Currently 2 x SATA drives in place, have bought a 3rd but can only seem to have 2 SATA power cables (lots of the traditonal power connectors though). Anything I can do here or do I need a new PSU!? Nightmare!
