The unit can report fan speed using the one glossy header (underneath the "SilverStone" logo, on the far right). A four-pin fan must be connected to this header for speed to be reported, and only this fan's RPM will be reported.

The SATA cable is 300mm, while the PWM cable is 500mm. Since the unit is drawing 12V power from a SATA cable, the three pins indicate a maximum input of 4.5A (54W). This allows an average of 0.5625A per header if all eight are populated. I'm not sure of the maximum output of a given header; 1A would be a reasonable lower bound. The input is brought through a 2200µF capacitor.
