[SOLVED] PWM connector on PSU?

[GogiAS]

Hi, so why do I have additional 4 pin PWM connector on low-entry level PSU when on official page they say nothing about it?
Model is Antec V550. PWM is on same cable with molex connector so I been wondering if that means when I connect PSU to the motherboard, all my case fans connected to the molex connectors will be controled?
Is it any good having fans controlled through psu?

It's probably a berg connector to power old floppy drives. You don't need it. Just ignore it. How old is this power supply?

Yeah, you're right. That is floppy connector.
I bought PSU 2 months ago. Why do they keep adding these type of connectors? It is useless.

Yeah right?! I don't know. They must have thousands of these things in a warehouse somewhere. Someday they will run out of them....I hope. Cheers.
