Received this unit over the past week. I noticed something just now when I'm scanning through the cables to plan my PC Build.
 
The PSU end of the 24 pin MB cable appears to have a hole that's empty.
Is this normal?
 
Will try uploading the image I'd just taken.

    Yes, normal..Pin 20 of the 24-pin connector was for a -5V terminal that's not used anymore so they leave it out.

    Thanks. Needed to verify it before plugging it into anything and based on your response found the same answer at a couple other places.
    One dating all the way back to 2011.
    Thanks!
