Hi guys, today I open my desktop pc, and noticed that my sata hard drives where connected to 4pin molex connectors with sata adapters. My power supply is a Thermaltake TR2 600w, and has 6 molex connectors and 6 sata power connectors.
My question is... Can I use those sata power connectors to connect my hard drives directly without using the 4pin adapters to 4 pin?
I'm not sure because sata power connectors have an orange extra cable, that supply 3.3 volt, and 4 pin does not.
This is what my adapters looks like

and thesse are my sata power connectors of my power supply
