What is the small, male 4 pin floppy connector on the underside of my PowerPulsar actually there for? Is it necessary for all uses? 3 card installs? My PSU just died and no new ones have that small connector on the end of a Molex/PATA cable. Easy enough to make but is it required?
Speaking of PSU's, I'll be damned if I can find a 450-650W new one without multiple cables I have no need for on a Gigabyte GA-EP35C-DS3R mobo. I may go modular with a Corsair RM750x to reduce clutter.

Re: Scope PowerPulsar floppy power connector
Modular and extensions where needed (like the 4 pin floppy connector on your PowerPulsar) is recommended.

Where are you based? I have a couple of modular psus I'm not using. I'm in Berlin, Germany

Seattle WA. Thanks but I’ve decided to get the Corsair as it’s a zero RPM to ultra quiet model.
Re: Scope PowerPulsar floppy power connector
I don’t see any information on that floppy connector in the Scope manual. No mention in the installation instructions.valis wrote: Mon Oct 06, 2025 2:27 pm Modular and extensions where needed (like the 4 pin floppy connector on your PowerPulsar) is recommended.

power for Z-Link(for Luna boxes)?
Re: Scope PowerPulsar floppy power connector
Seems likely.

This is from the manual:
If you want to connect one or two Luna 2496 I/O Boxes or also A16 Ultra units to the Z-Link plate, you must connect the floppy power connector with the appropriate connector on PC's internal power supply. Otherwise proper power supply to the PCI bus as per specification is not possible.
