All the drives are good.  They all power up fine, so yeah....  Just going to be a chore finding the original box.  I bet the extra cables I did not take out of the box when I first got it are still in there.  
 
Thanks for helping me get pointed in the right direction!

Hey bob16314...
 
Quick question...  I have almost all that I need on the B2 PSU I have, aside from the SATA modular cable.
 
Would this one work?
 
Ok, so my link is not saving.  Guess I do not have a high enough post count...  Anyways, it is part number W001-00-000149 from the EVGA products/power supplies/cables selection.  The 4x SATA modular cable...
 
I checked the compatibility list and B2 is not listed, but B3 is.  I checked around and saw that you "can", I just want to be sure before I order.
 
I ransacked my house and garage, and I am fairly certain that they were in something that I did not know about, that got tossed in my garage purge last year...

You can put spaces in the URL (like I put below) and it should show up here for you..But yeah, that should work according to the Which EVGA Modular Cables are compatible with my PSU? FAQ that shows B2 and B3 cable sets are compatible.

You could buy (or borrow) an El Cheapo multimeter like some of these for under 10 bones at Walmart or just about any auto parts store that will do the job and then re-pin the cable you have now..I use one like this..Lift the little tabs up slightly on the connector and pull the terminals out the back and rearrange them according to the pinout diagram, no biggie..Component-end connector pinout is Intel industry-standard..Pinouts are show as if you're looking into the connector end unless otherwise specified..A multimeter is always handy to have around.

Thanks for the info!
 
I ended up ordering the cables, as I will need the current extra for when I setup my son's PC with the PSU I am using now.  I hope to get the EVGA one working with these new cables, that way I can setup the other tower.

I feel confident in saying that after you get the new cables, it will be fine..Anyway, let us know how things work out.
