Dell 300sc - Tech Support Forums

Hey,
I have a dell 300sc its aging but I want to make into a storage box, so I got 4 SATA Raptors for it but the little PSU is not gonna cut it. The motherboard has a 24 pin atx on it. So I got a Fortron 550 watt 24 pin PSU.

Well it looks like Dell uses a different Pin out. Does anyone know of an adapter to make my 24 pin atx work on my Dell 24 pin motherboard?

Thank you

If your p/s has the same wires/voltages just in a different position I would try and remove the wires from the plug and rearrange them.
But here is an adapter, make sure it works with your model.

Hey thanks for the link, but that adapter is 20 pins, mine is 24.
