Is there any advantage to powering a SATA drive using the SATA power connecter, or is the ATX 4 PIN connect just as good to use. My WD 36GB Raptor has both and I was just wondering if one was better than the other.

power is power. The reason it has both is when it was released no power supplys had the sata connector. IF you have a psu with sata power use it
