A word of caution here--observe that the 4-pin power
connector looks
exactly like a standard 3.5" conector, but the +12 and +5 leads
are
interchanged. If you try to use a power connector wired for a 3.5"
drive, you'll make magic smoke.

WHOA! Now that's a pretty harsh way of making sure folks only use your
proprietary drive...
