Which power connector should I use for the SATA HDD. My PS comes with a SATA power connector as well as 4 pin connectors, and my HDD has the SATA power connector and the other 4 pin...I assume the SATA and 4 pin are the same, and I should use only one...most likely the SATA...is that correct?

Also, is there any diffence in using one over the other?
 
If you have a Maxtor drive with both connectors, it really doesn't matter since the drive doesn't use the 3.3V on the SATA power connector.

I personally feel the four pin Molex fits tighter.

Just don't use both. ;)
