I need to know a little about what goes where. I am building my new computer and it is sweet(well, will be). It is almost all put together except for some wires. Why do the fans have 3 connectors? Two are transparent-ish white with four huge pin-like things inside them. The other connector thing is a white-beige piece with 4 holes. Do I hook them all up or what? Are they all used and if so, where do they go? I mean, to which thing on the power supply.
On my cd drive, there is a cable that came with it that goes into the slot labled 'sata power'. At the end of it, is one of those transparent-ish white pieces with 4 gigantic pins. But in the middle, a sata connecter is put there. What is that for? I checked my power supply's sata connectors and they are the same exact as the one on the cable, so they wouldn't interlock or anything. Do I leave it there or what?
Ohh, and what does FDD mean? I saw on my motherboard manual something about FDD blah blah. What is FDD?
