Using a psu to supply a Chromebook

I am looking to put my old Chromebook into a PC case once I get a new laptop, and want to strip it of it's case and then put a heat sink on it to cool it more than any other Chromebook. I want to put a hub onto the the power USB c port so that I can power it and use the port for data. But, I don't want to use the external power supply, because I want to connect a hard drive and would need the SATA power to power it, and the stock chargers get supper hot. Any one know of any adapters that would be of use?

If you have any fun ideas for things for me to do with my PI, send me a direct message. 

I plan to upgrade within a few months to a proper computer.

Because I do. I like to do things the hard way, and I don't have much else to do or much money.
