I have read a lot of articles here I love how people help each other.
So I need help. Last month I bought Alienware Aurora R10 used. When I opened it I see there is a missing PSU cable to power the SSD/HDD. Any suggestions on where I can these or what I should use?
I have tried to buy a nonbrand cable 6pin and PC doesn't turn on with them.
it is prudent not to use modular cable from one retail psu maker for psu made by another. For example never mix Corsair modular cable with Seasonic.
Corsair also makes different modular cable such as type 3 or type 4 which are incompatible.
Regarding the current topic of discussion, there is evidence (see above) that Aurora R5, R8, R10, Area 51 R2 (and likely R5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 inclusive) 850w Dell oem modular psu are 100% compatible and safe to interchange, not just the psu itself but cable set. User do need to pay attention to precut cable length as R5, R10 chassis are somewhat different.
If the oem 850w psu and 1000w psu are made by same company for Aurora R10, for example D850EF-00 and D1000EF-00, it is reasonable to presume cable set for 850w psu is c/w 1000w. Since all Dell 850w oem psu are interchangeable regardless of Delta, Huntkey etc., as they must all conform to Dell oem standard, it can be further presumed that 850w cable set for R5 is c/w all 1000w oem psu models for Aurora R5-10.
Look inside the metal box in front of the PSU. Take the metal shield off that has 2 screws. Your SATA power cables may be folded up inside that box, which is intended for excess cable storage.
Hi, Sorry I was a little confused. I have the same predicament as the original poster, so what you are saying is that we need to buy all those cables listed 2,2,1,1,1,1,1 to install the 1000 gold RGJRX PSU ? Thanks in advance.
Ohh wow , thank you for the quick response and clarifying everything . I was confusing the r #s for the chassis code for the auroras. Thank you again!! Merry Christmas

Do you have 850w or 1000w psu? both are modular psu (the 550w psu is non-modular)
I think the 850w psu is model D850EF-00, which was used in Aurora R5/6.
DP/N G2GX9 looks like the Dell sata power cable.
