Hey there! My team is working on a huge home automation system for a sci tech house. For that I am using 10 Raspberry Pi 5s. These fit well for our work as we need many cores(Weak cores will work fine) and Large amount of RAM. The only way that looks practical for me is using a computer PSU. I have a Corsari CX650m laying around that I extracted from my brother’s PC. It has many Sata and Molex power connectors. I can use a simple switch to short the 5VSB rails and turn on the system. I also don’t want to use any GPIO pins as I have lot of IO to work with like custom Cooling and Mics, Cameras, and Motion Sensors. My questions are that
Can I use the Molex connecters 5V and ground to make a custom adapter of Molex to USB?
Should I add a resistor as I have heard that Molex can deliver 50 amps Max?
Can overcurrent damage Raspberry Pi?
