HP Slim Desktop PC S01-pF2000i (4M0H7AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

I just purchased an HP slim desktop S01-pf2016 for my home.  I'm replacing an older HP Slim desktop (Model 410-010).  I sometimes still need an Optical Disk Drive (CD/DVD).  I realize I can purchase an external Optical Disk Drive, but I have a working Disk Drive from my older HP Slim Desktop (Model 410-010).  It appears to me that this Optical Disk Drive should install in the newer S01-pf2016.   I see SATA2 connector pins on the motherboard.  I don't see where the power connects.  Where does the 2-wire power connect?

This is an image of the motherboard in your PC.

The white header is labeled ODD power and the blue header is SATA.

Your solution worked.  My motherboard was slightly different that the answer, but I was able to find the correct connections with the info you provided.  Thank You.
