Greetings folks,
I hope this is in the right forum, I couldn't find any category that fit my topic.
Its been a long, long time since I've visited. My disabilities have gotten me down and I've had a hard time getting back to my favorite hobby, computers. This brings me to why I am bothering you today. I recently bought a new HD for my computer. I have a SATA HD and replaced it with a 500GB HD. I had intended on using the old HD as a backup but when I cracked the case I found that while the mobo had a couple extra SATA connections and I had purchased a SATA cable, my power supply only has two power connectors for SATA, one is being used by my DVD burner and the other by the HD.
The power supply has several of the old four pin power connectors but no extra SATA power cord. Is there any way to convert one of the four pin connectors to a SATA connector or do I just have to spring for a new power supply?
Thanks.

A Y cable with three outputs?
