Adding a 2.5 inch SATA SSD to Pavilion empty drive bay

[Datrakker]

I have an HP Pavilion laptop, model 15CC159NR. It has a factory installed NVMeM.2 SSD. HP part number 855636–001. I am trying to install an additional Toshiba OCZ TR150 SATA SSD in the empty drive bay. I ordered the Hp Pavilion 15-AU063NR HDD CABLE (part number: 856352-001). I figured out how the drive mounts fit, but it appears that when everything is installed in its proper location, the cable seems too short to reach the hdd zif socket on the motherboard. There is another zif socket just below what I think is the correct hard drive socket. The hdd cable might just about reach that socket, but not only is that socket populated with a cable labeled: Carbon pin 1 - pin 2 vcc; pin 3 - pin 4 GND, it appears to only have four conductors. The socket above is unpopulated, the right size, and has what appears to be the right number of conductors, but again, the cable looks way too short. Help and thank you.
