Hi, /g/.

What is this and where is it supposed to go? It is unlabeled and doesn't appear to fit any slots in my motherboard.

And yes, I am completely unable to master the focus of my camera.

DVD/HDD. Not used for todays hardware anymore but still nice to have since there are many different connectors who use Molex for power. Think about soundcards,fans, molex > 6pin PCI-e connectors.
