What’s the name of those 2 so that I can sell mine and buy new ones? …or should I just cut the side of these and power supply connectors? 🤔

I believe the connector you are looking for is called SFF-8482. They are available in backplane and cable versions.

😆 You’re right! I was so mad with myself for the wrong purchase that I couldn’t think about anything! By the way, thanks!
