There are 4 split wires which consist of one normal wire and one wire which is a smaller gauge. However, I know how these relate to the connector. For example 24P-2 is repeated in the pinout diagram in the 18pin connector because that is where the head, where the split wires meet, is connected. The smaller gauge wire is connected to the corresponding number ending with s i.e. in this case +3V3s is where the smaller gauge wire is connected.

Lutro0 and others plus extension cable manufacturers tend to use the same gauge of wire (18AWG) for all the connections.

K, thanks guys... I will follow the pin out diagram and let you know. I have also contacted corsair to see if they can shed any light, but I trust what you are saying i.e. my board won't blow-up is true... I will keep you informed.

Unfortunately not... one of the pins broke and so I had to order a new cable. I guess I just learnt the hard way not to pull all the wires out at once without labelling them. Thanks for the help Lutro.

Quick question, have you done a video showing people how to sleeve a sata power cable I.e. my SSD has a sata cable (which I easily sleeved using your video) but I cannot find anything for the sata power cable for my SSD .
