SATA power from a Molex plug
Many power supplies, and many older ones especially, have spare Molex plugs but run out of SATA plugs. The short adapter turns a free Molex plug into a SATA plug right where it is needed.
No 3.3V line
A 4-pin Molex connector carries 12V and 5V only, so the SATA connector of this adapter has no 3.3V supply. Drives, fan hubs and pumps work normally; the rare device that needs 3.3V from the SATA plug does not.
