It's a header for a digital audio port -- optical or digital coax.

Can it be used as a header for something else or is it strictly for that?

As far as I know it can only be used for digital audio. 

 

Do you need another header for something?

Yeah, an Add_Header for RGB lighting. This port is two on one side the one of the other just like that port so I tho it might be it. My mobo dosent have an header for that so I guess il have to get one that does. Thanks for your help!

S/PDIF = Sony/Phillips Digital Interface.  The "0" is just the port number/address (In laymans terms). Id-Est SPDIF_0, SPDIF_1 et-al

This Wikipedia page about S/PDIF may prove useful..... or not, as the case may be.

This old man explains it very simple in the video in the link, plus there's multimedia add-ons like 5.25" Desktop Media Dashboard Front Panel that will fit in the drive bays, if your so inclined to use it. I am just posting on this old discussion just because someone might find it useful in the future if they plan on building computer repair rig and want to get more use of their motherboard,when anyone buys a header converter/adapters for a device make, sure everything is compatible. 

 

Research prevents unwanted damage, you don't want.
