    Why does my new case have 2 H.D.D. leads?

    From my front panel wiring I have a:

    Red & Black wired (connected) connector labeled H.D.D. LED (no polarity marks)

    and an Orange (+) & White (-) (connected) connector labeled H.D.D. LED

    but only one space on my MB for H.D.D. LED connection.

    What's up with this guys?
