I have a 7 port external hub but decided its not convienent enough for some peripherals so I bought a 4 port Hub to go in an empty 3.5" drive. They way they have it set up is a cable is connected to the hub which looks something like 7 pin connector, (4 on the top and 3 on the bottom). I'm supposed to run that cable through an emtpy PCI hole into my USB slot on the back. However, my motherboard has support for Front USB ports and has a 7 pin that I can plug into.

My question is, where can I buy this cable and what is its name? Whenever I search for USB, I just get regular 'external' cables when I really need an 'internal'. If I was to take apart the boot, would that plug be there?

Ha, thats exactly what I bought earlier today at a computer shop for $5. I connected that to my motherboard then my 4 Port Hub into one of the 2 USB ports I just created. Took me a while to realize I has to move the wires around to correspond to my motherboard. I appreciate your help though...
