I have a build with a Fractal Define 7 XL case on order. The build includes two SSDs only. I want to add 5 3.5" inch HDDs and one SSD from my existing setup when it arrives, so I'm trying to establish what I need to obtain in order to do this.
I'm under the impression I don't need any drive cages or trays but not sure if this would vary based on my GPU or cooler. It's an 3080 and the cooler is an H115i Elite Cappelix. Also slightly unsure on the cables I'll need. Does the PSU (Corsair 1000W RMx Series) come with any spare cables, for example? I know I need a SATA cable for each drive - I assume there aren't any spares with the case - but not sure what kind of cable I need to connect the drives to the PSU, how many pins etc? I know how to do this on my existing system, but I've always had spare cables so I've just used those. Also it's about a dozen years old and things may have changed since then.
Sorry if this is a really basic question, but Googling it isn't getting me very far and you either know this stuff or you don't!
