Molex Concerns

Hey guys. I've run into a slight problem whenever I was hooking up my computer yesterday. Turns out, my generic case power supply only has 4 molex connections. My real problem is that I need 7 molex connectors, so naturally I'll have to use power splitters on two of the connections. My question is could I split a connection from my hard drive with something that I won't use a lot, like a floppy drive?

My current thinking is that I'll use the first connection as a pure line for my video card, the second I'll use as another pure line, but this time for my hard drive (Since I've heard that you shouldn't split your hard drive line), and the last two I'll split for a combination for my CD-ROM, CD Burner, Floppy, and my two fans. You guys have any advice for me (Besides a new power supply, since I'm reserving that for my very last resort)? Thanks.
 
Nevermind, I forgot that a Floppy doesn't use a 4-pin molex connector. Mods can delete the thread now. Looks like I solved my own problem.
