Comment on Small Unraid PC with 2 HDDs. Silverstone SG13 case with Asrock N100DC-ITX, the SATA power cable was too short so I had to improvise.

Huh. Kind of surprised it supports up to four drives, but if that’s what it says, there you go. Shouldn’t be any risk of drawing too much current through the wire. At most the board or PSU would shut down.

Also, if you are putting more drives in, see if the BIOS lets you enable staggered spin-up, so that they aren’t all peaking at the same time.
