I'm all out of SATA power cables. What do I do? (zerobytes.monster)

So my Corsair RM750x came with a grand total of three 6 pin to 3x SATA power cables. So I can plug in 9 drives if you do the math, except two SSD's are mounted on the back of the mobo, and so the third power connector on that one is inaccessible. I have room for more drives and I intend to use it.

Do I buy something like this? Is it safe? Will my PC and my hard drives blow up and burn down my house? Any limitations that I need to be aware of?
