Plz help! I've recently built a pc but i do not have much knowledge about computer hardware side. Yesterday i have installed a second hard drive to my pc. After that my fans in front of the case stopped working. My MB is asus tuf b460M plus wifi. And i have a raidmax x627 case. It has 4 fans. 3 in front and one in back. Back fan works fine and the cpu air cooler works too. Not the front fans. Plz help me I'm freaking out here.

Sounds like you accidentally knocked off the fan plug from the header.

Check the wiring from the fan to the motherboard, and make sure the connection is secure.

Yes, that molex plug should provide power to the fans, just keep in mind that any fans not plugged directly into the motherboard won't have fan monitoring and I believe they will run at full speed off molex.

 

Ideally you want to plug the fans into the fan headers on your motherboard.
