IDE 4-pin and molex

[haris262]

I just wanted to be certain, is the IDE 4-pin and the molex cable the same thing? Because the power supply I want to buy says it has 4 "IDE 4-pin connectors", and a quick google images search shows that the two cables look exactly the same. However I still wanted to ask just to be on the safe side.

Thank you for your input!

Well the IDE Molex is the old kind the new Sata power connector is different but if you are buying a new power supply it will come with both so you will be fine.
