I bought myself a quartz64 model a from pine64 (my instance is hosted on there) when it came out. It has a sata port but no sata power.
Turns out SATA SSDs only use the 5v part of the sata power connector so i took a sata power cable from an old PSU and an old usb cable and soldered the 5v line of the sata connector to the usb power. Look like crap and I fully expected shit to blow up but it somehow works really well.
(No I did’t have electrical tape)
