SATAPWR1 and SATAPWR2 Headers

I noticed there are two power headers, SATAPWR1 and SATAPWR2, near the 24 pin ATX_POWER header. These two headers seem to have a connector like a 4-pin fan connector, but the label seems to indicate potentially a different pinout or purpose.

Are these standard fan power connectors, or are they meant to be used to power SATA drives? And if the latter, are there any connectors/adapters that can be used with them to plug in a device like a SATA hard drive? Also, I don’t see any documentation about these connectors on the Hardware interface page yet.

NO. Define
1 5V
2 GND
3 GND
4 12V

This is the SATA power interface we have reserved

Thanks! Is there any chance you’ll have an adapter to go from that to a SATA power plug?

I also noticed, on the docs page (Hardware Interface | Milk-V), it shows a 5-pin pinout, instead of the 4-pin used on the board. I’m assuming otherwise the specs are the same (pin distance, current ratings), but it would be nice to have the 4-pin diagram to match the headers on the board, if that exists.
