Hey there. I'm a bit confused which power ribbon I should use for my Intel SSD 540 series internal drive. Until now, I've had a 2TB Seagate plugged into P8. Since P7 is so close it would be ideal for the SSD, but would using it fry my motherboard? Should I switch the two? Should they be configured altogether differently? I just want to use the SSD for apps and have the other drive for storage. I'm on a PC Acer Predator model G3620. Really appreciate any help.
