    You can get cables to convert molex plugs to 2x sata's, my Hiper PSU came with them.

    I know that but, but don't want to overload one of the rails too much and wanted someone to have already worked all that out for me ie you can have 4 drives on each of these 2 rails etc.

    Budget ???

    Personally I would get a Corsair, solid PSU's backed up with a 5 year warranty.
