    Silverstone ST1500-GS 4-pin connector

    I want to use this PSU with the small form factor cable kit, as the supplied ATX ribbon cable is way too long and bulky. However, there's a 4-pin proprietary connector on the stock cable that plugs into the PSU. You can see the connector on the PSU to the right of the label here...

The RAID controller itself is fine, but the SAS expander seems bricked so the card doesn't see any drives. I may have uploaded the wrong firmware. Areca's website has a "8026.zip" file...
