Hello. I recently built a gaming PC and I really wanted to add some LED lights to make it look awesome. I didn't research much and bought an LED strip that came with a power supply (dumb, I know). After some time researching how I could connect it to the PC, I came across an LTT video from 2016 (https://youtu.be/K-UyK_l0jpAwhere at 2:11 Luke shows what he said was a 'SATA connector', here's an image of it: https://i.imgur.com/riTLPGW.jpg

After some time researching I found out what he's holding in that image is exactly what I need to connect the LED strip to my power supply, because: https://i.imgur.com/bUqmWQ8.jpg 

As you can see I could connect one end of the cable he's holding in the image to the LED strip and the other end to my power supply.

That LED strip wasn't cheap so I really want to figure out a way to connect it to my power supply, and I believe that cable is what I need, but the problem is, I don't know how/where to find it! I tried searching 'SATA connector' but I didn't find it, so I thought someone here would know what it's called, or maybe someone knows a better way for me to connect that LED strip to my power supply. Any help is appreciated!
