You don't need to use them, so as the post above me says, just tuck them away and try and turn the PC on

THANK YOU SO MUCH  I thought I had to use them and just to make sure it's just the sata cable and the other cable that goes into the ssd or hdd that is not needed

Yes. If you are using a n M.2, and assuming no DVD drive, the only power cables you need are the 24 pin for the mobo, 8 pin for the CPU, and GPU power cables (could be 6 pin, 8 pin, 6 + 6, 6 + 8, 8+ 8).
