The previous power management board didn't factor in the status LED light and the fan for cooling the HDD. In the work in progress version, I added two more 5V XHR-2.54 header for doing just that.
Note that some 12V fan that fits (6010) can actually be powered by 5V and it is actually much quieter if it is under voltage. In this revision, I am taking advantage of this properties and allow 5V powering of a 12V 6010 fan. Here is the 3D preview if anyone of you is interested.
