Definitely the wrong adapter above. It's one directional. Male SATA power to female 6-pin connector is the direction it goes in. It would have to be just the opposite, male 6-pin to female SATA power.
A SATA power splitter is your best bet. SATA power splitters on Amazon

I also answered your other posts. https://www.dell.com/community/en/conversations/optiplex-desktops/dell-proprietary-6-and-8-pin-sata-power-cable-dpn/647fa297f4ccf8a8de8271ac
In your other threaded posts, you mentioned adding an HDD instead of an SSD like you did in this thread. SATA power splitter will work just the same.
