Answer:

IDE hard drives (Integrated Drive Electronics) aka (PATA) or "Parallel ATA" (Advanced Technology Attachment), were the previous standard before SATA which are faster; IDE drives are disposed with 41 to 44 pins, and they normally use 5V; although to certain extent small laptop 2.5" drives need only 5V, some of them also need 12V; and 3.5" drives require 12V plus 5V for the motor and logic.

Thereby the most suitable answers are B.) & E.) ,

5V and 12V respectively.
