OK, /g/, I'm building my own computer for the first time, and my case comes with two spots to mount 2.5" drives. My question is, if I plug the SATA cable from the PSU into it and turn it on, am I going to fry the drive?

Pic very related.

No, 3,5" and 2,5" are compatible.

This, just don't plug the fan connector of your PSU (if there are any) to the motherboard fan headers.
