Solution
the power supply probably has the power port you'd need on it - it's the wide flat one.
you'll need a SATA data cable, the narrow one. your mobo might have included a few. worst case buy a handful on ebay for future use.

really, it's child's play. eh, no, it's easier than that. kids these days could likely run circles around adults when it comes to computer crap.
