I need a SATA to SATA and LP4 adapter

[Sometwo]

I need a USB 3.0 card that has a 4 pin molex connection, but I don't have any available power connectors. So I think need something like a SATA male to SATA female and LP4 female cable. I've searched and can't find what I need. Does it even exist?

I would just take an old fan or something and splice it into the wire.

I'm not as hardcore as you.

Could I take the SATA power from my DVD player, and connect it to this StarTech.com PYO2SATA 6in SATA Power Y Splitter Cable Adapter - M/F

Then connect one SATA power end to my DVD player, then the other to this Sata to LP4 15 Pin Power Adapter

Then the LP4 to the Anker® Uspeed PCI-E to USB 3.0 2 Port Express Card, with 1 USB 3.0 20-pin Connector and 5V 4 Pin Male Power Connector

I know some adapters don't work well, and I have no idea about voltages, or if chaining like this would work.

Cant you do with a card that does not have a molex connnector?

I guess asrock card does not require any power at all as seen from image.
The other one needs a floppy power connector though.

Actually, that's an idea. I picked out what seems to be by far the most popular card and got focused on that. Does anyone know of a good USB 3.0 Low Profile card that can use SATA power?
