First time builder and I was wondering if all the panel connectors in my PC are required to be used. I just installed the JFP1 connectors and specially want to know if the JFP2, JAUD1 (Front panel audio connectors),JUSB2-3 (USB 2.0 expansion connector), JTPM1 (TMP Module connector), JLPT1 (parallel port header), JCOM1 (serial port connector) and JCI1 (Chassis Intrusion Connector), JUSB_PW1-2 (USB power jumper), JBAT1 (Clear CMOS Jumper) are needed.
Please list where I will find these Connectors and which ones I will need and won't.
Also, please give a newegg or amazon link to anything else I need to buy.
Second Question, when I watch videos on Youtube about how to install a PSU and HDD their are 2 things I was wondering of I needed.
Please give a link to the thing I need to mount my PSU in my case and put my 3.5 inch HDD in it's slot.
Full Spec list:
Antec VSK- 4000 case
Cooler Master i500 - 500W Power Supply with 80 PLUS Bronze Certification PSU
Western Digital Cavair Blue 500 GB HDD
AMD a8 5600k
4 GB kingston HyperX RAM 1600 MHz
MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 FM2 MOBO
I already have CPU, MOBO, and RAM installed.

Your case will use a standard ATX psu. It will fit.
And... unless you bought your case used without all the parts, I doubt that you need to buy anything extra to mount a standard 3.5" hard drive.

Go ahead and read the manuals, cover to cover, anyway.
You will learn much.
Just,plan on connecting everything.
Parts are keyed to only fit one way. Do not force anything.

Actually, the only tricky part is the front paned led headers. If you get the + and - polarity wrong, the led lights will not work.
Ho harm is done, just reverse them.

Typically, you mount the hard drive using 4 screws( supplied by the case) in a drive caddy, then install the drive caddy in the case.
Sometimes, the drive is screwed in directly to the drive cage.

The psu will be mounted with 4 screws through the psu opening at the back of the case.
