If your Serial ATA HDD has both 4-pin and 15-pin connectors at the
back, use either the 15-pin SATA power adapter plug OR the legacy
4-pin power connector. DO NOT use both to prevent damage to
components and to keep the system from becoming unstable.
3. For Serial ATA HDDs with a 4-pin
power connector:
a. Connect a 4-pin (female) power plug from the power supply unit
to the 4-pin (male) power connector at the back of the drive. See
page 2-25 for details on the power supply unit plugs.
For Serial ATA HDDs without a 4-pin power connector:
b. Connect the 15-pin SATA power adapter plug to the power
connector at the back of the drive, then connect the other end
(4-pin male) to a 4-pin (female) power plug from the power supply
unit. See page 2-25 for details on the power supply unit plugs.
