Description
SATA 15-Pin to 4-Pin Molex Power Adapter - Female Molex
Convert a spare SATA power line from your PSU to the classic 4-pin peripheral (Molex/LP4) connector. Ideal for powering legacy HDD/ODD drives, fans, pumps, LED controllers and other accessories that require a Molex input. Gold-flashed contacts ensure a reliable, low-resistance connection for everyday trade and system-build use.
