Answer:

c) Molex connector

Explanation:

Before SATA became a standard, the MOLEX connector was widely used for powering hard disk drives, optical drives and 5 1/4 floppy drives on personal computers.

It has four conductors, with the following colours and voltages:

Yellow - Black - Black - Red

+12v - GND - GND - +5v
