Hello everybody I wasn't sure where to put this hopefully this is the best place to post. I have been working on a server I have and I am replacing the stock PSUs for one that has a little more "umf" and I came across a little connector on my motherboard that is labeled pdb_conn. From what I've read and looked up in the manual it is called a power distribution board power connector, those of you who are quad copter enthusiasts will probably recognize this.

The problem I'm having is the power cord that is connected to this is coming straight from the current psu and when I look online I cant seem to find any kind of adapter that will make a normal modular psu be able to connect to it. Has anyone else had this issue or something similar? Is this something I even need to worry about? Below I have linked the manual for the original computer it is on pages 178 and 179.
