Adding a 2nd SSD to my new Dell Slim ECS1250
I just got a new Dell Slim ECS1250. One of the features I wanted was the ability to add a 2nd ssd, SATA.
I found the location of the SATA data connection.
I found the location of the SATA power connection.
But, the 6 pin cable I ordered from Amazon didn't fit.
What kind of cable do I need and where can I get it?
No Events found!

The question is moot,
I'm sending the thing back!
When I bought the machine, based on the ability to add the 2nd SSD, I expected to spend a day or two getting it set up.
Then I could get back to work.
I have spent the better part of two weeks spinning my wheels.
I have had to contact tech support a numner of times regardong other issues.
From their replies I got the impression that they didn't even read what I sent them.
Then there is this situation with proprietary connectors.
I went back and forth with tech support again and got the same really lousy responses.
When they told me to call the sales dept they didn't even tell me a part number to ask for.
That was the last straw.
Obviously, I'll never buy anything from Dell ever again.

Looks like I am going to do the same thing, and also wont buy Dell anymore.
Multiple support channels didn't read my question, they sends me to other channels and back, then demand more money for parts that should have been included or the specs should have stated that it was required. Just a terrible experience all around
