I know Sata has its own power connector. Does it make a difference in performance if I use the molex connector that comes with my power supply. Will an Molex to Sata power adapter make a difference at all?

thanks

Either one will work the same, it doesn't make a difference as long as the drive has both connectors.

The small connecto has 3.3 volts on it htat the molex doesn't have and is only used for hot docking.
