A 4-pin peripheral power connector, commonly known as a Molex connector, typically provides +12V and +5V power. It can deliver a maximum current of up to 11 amps on the +12V rail and 11 amps on the +5V rail, depending on the specific power supply unit (PSU) capabilities. This allows for a total power output of approximately 132 watts when considering both voltage rails. It's mainly used to power older hard drives, optical drives, and other peripherals.

Does computer supply takes main power and transforms it to the voltages?

Your power supply unit, PSU. Takes AC power and distributes so much power to each connector. Each PSU, depending on the wattage of the unit gives each connector so much voltage. Each connector is designed for a certain piece of hardware that requires different voltage.


What is a molex cable?

A Molex power connector is a 4-pin power connector found in most computer power supplies. It is used to provide power to large internal drives like hard drives and CD/DVD drives. They are slowly being replaced by SATA power connectors, which are easier to install can cannot be inserted incorrectly. They should not be confused with a Berg connector which is much smaller and is used to power floppy drives. The molex connector is used for IDE drives


Why would a PC repair technician need to know the power consumption of a peripheral components?

If the peripheral component draws power from the PC then that could relate to a problem on the PC. If it draws power from the same extension and the things in that extension are drawing too much power for the extension then that could also affect the PC.
