You got a link that shows the Inspiron 530 had molex?
All the PDF manuals I've found from dell do not show molex and I didnt see it in the case either but will check it again tonight

Is it a few years old?
Your optical drive has molex. You can you use a Y splitter off that just fine to power this hub.
