I can't seem to connect my new usb/card reader to my motherboard. This is the drive that I bought, except mine is the model without a sata port.

I believe I unplugged the wire from the card reader that was for the fire wire and the wire that was for the 6 channel audio. I won't be using those features and thought that I could unplug them. I am left with power cable and a usb cable. There is no where to plug the usb to on the motherboard so I thought that I am supposed to use the female usb connector and connect the end to my usb header. The end of the female usb adapter is, 4 wires ending in single pins. It says Black is GND, Green is D+, White is D-, and Red is VCC. This is not enough for my usb header, which takes 9 pins I think. Am I missing a cable? or am I missing something else? Thanks for any help.
