Nope. to connect the HDD to your motherboard you only need a SATA cable. 

that splitter is to convert one molex plug from your PSU to 2 SATA power, the other cable you need to make a HDD work. But your PSU should come with more than enough SATA power plugs as is.

Only if your putting it in an older system without sata power.

 

But no thats a power cable, to connect to the mobo you'll need a sata data cable.

Silent build - You know your pc is too loud when the deaf complain. Windows 98 gaming build, smells like beige
