I noticed on the back of my new WD raptors that they have two power inputs. one standard four pin 12v and another SATA power input. do I need to have bolth pluged in? or just choose one?

Thanks

Only use one. Either will work but only use one.

If you use both you will prolly damage the drive FYI.

If i were you i would rather use the regular molex connector instead of the new sata power connector. The sata can became flimsy and when u twist or move the cable around. Molex is stuck there once u plug it in.
