The 4 pins next to the SATA data connector on the Seagate drive are 
nonstandard.  Their purpose is not documented in Seagate manual:

I doubt they are some kind of secondary power connector.  Far more 
likely are a programming header, a debug port, an auxiliary feature 
output (e.g. drive activity LED), a configuration jumper...

No need.  The Newegg page shows the connectors clearly:

If this is a standard SATA enclosure, only the two keyed edge connectors 
need to be used, as Kai says.
