All lengths have a tolerance of 10 mm. PATA plugs are the 4-pin Molex plugs. The 12V-2x6 to 2x 8-pin cable is stored as a PCIe 8-pin cable with 2 plugs. It and the 12V-2x6 cable both plug into the native 12V-2x6 socket of the PSU, as Hardware Busters says the modular panel has one native 12V-2x6 header.
