Can I replace the sata power cable with a molex extension?

Yes. If you look closely at the picture, it's actually female molex on the adapter itself. Not sure why they pictured it with a SATA adapter cable attached.

Hmmm... I had the opposite problem when I put mine together. I found the data port (located in front left quadrant of mb), but discovered I needed to buy a molex to sata power conversion cable. to get power.

Not likely - this is a _mini_ SATA connector, not a full size SATA connector.

The SATA connector there is for data only! You'll need a connector for power, then another connector to AC or other device for power.For power, either find molex to SATA power and use a Molex to AC adapter, or purchase a USB SATA adapter that uses data+power via USB. To start, Syba's solution for USB 3.0 uses a dedicated AC power supply which you plug into the adapter to give it power, should the power from USB 2.0/3.0 not be adequate to power the device.

Thank you for contacting us. Yes, you can use the existing cable if it is standard SATA. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

You could connect it to the SATA port on a mainboard with an adapter cable, but I don't know what kind of thru put you would get.SATA to eSATA Cable

Hi, you just need a 4-pin molex plug from your PSU. If you're unsure of this plug, simply Google it and check some images to see what it looks like. It's the most common power adapter on PSUs, though SATA power connectors are becoming the norm. Still, just about every PSU has molex plugs.

This drive has a SATA interface, I don't know if you might be able to get an adapter.

If you have a extra power dongle from the power supply, you can use it. If not, you can purchase a Computer Molex 4 Pin Power Supply Y Splitter Cable Generic from Amazon

"any" standard SATA power cable will work.Consider if you want an angled connector or not, and what the other end should look like. Since you are asking the question, I assume you have power supply w/o any SATA power connectors but only "Molex" connectors. If so, one like this will fit the bill (can also finder longer, or even split with several SATA connectors if you have multiple drives); StarTech 6in 4 Pin Molex to SATA Power Cable Adapter (SATAPOWADAP)

As long as the cable is in good working condition there is no problem. And as long as they are SATA and not IDE

The power cable should already be on the power supply in the computer case. The drive comes with one SATA cable (I don't remember the exact length, but I recall it was about a foot long). I also bought a box with 10 or 12 spare SATA cables here on Amazon just in case.

You need an "internal" SATA cable. A 12-18 inch cable will do. Look at the route the cable must take, and order one with either straight connectors or L-shaped connectors (one or both ends) as needed.

Yes, it requires the 6-pin PCIe power connector from your PSU. Or, if your PSU doesn't have the 6-pin PCIe, the card ships with a small adapter to turn two(?) Molex (IDE/HDD power) into a 6-pin PCIe.
