NOOB: power for motherboard SATA drive, SuperMicro 4U CSE-846 24 Bay SAS2 BP X9DRi-F

[esamett]

My first time working with server hardware. I am trying to move my 22 disk FreeNAS server frankenstein setup to a single server. I would like to use the on-board SATA ports for my two half-size ssd boot drives (photo attached)rather than using two drive bays up front. I'm not seeing any consumer type power connectors. (photo attached) Any advice woyld be appreciated.

Confused NOOB
The Sc846 case has room for internal drives. Per manual:

3.5”

MCP-220-84601-0N

2.5
MCP-220-00051-0N

MCP-220-84601-0N

The manual however doesn’t clarify how you are supposed to plug them in to the redundant supply or power distribution board. Amazon listings for these parts doesn’t show wiring.

Solved: there is a free Molex connector hidden inside cover for power distributor board. Super micro specs that up to 4 drives may be run through them. Y connector and adapter and good to go. Unfortunately these are small format ssd and won’t screw in to standard bay.
