I'm going to be sleeving a powersupply and I was wondering if it matters if you get the two ground wires on the mollex connector crossed. For example, I take it appart and the ground that is next to the 12v line gets put into the spot for the ground to the 5v line. Theroretically the gounds are all going to go to the same place so it shouldn't matter I just want to make sure that I'm not going to screw something up but putting a ground wire back in the wrong place. Thanks guys.
 
No it will not. You could theoretically connect both grounds off each device to the case, and it would still work.

I was looking into that as a possible wire concelment option.
 
Thanks that sets my mind at ease. Now I know I'm not going to fubar my entire setup.
 
Yeah, ground is ground. Hell, I ran mine without ground wires for a damn long time. Just ran it with chassis ground on all my drives. I think I was just lazy and didn't want to do more than was necessary, but it actually didn't look too bad.
