Title: SATA to IDE power adapter
Post by: Zorchenhimer on November 08, 2007, 01:10:56 AM

Does anyone know where I can find one of those?  It's a male SATA to a female IDE power cable/adapter.  I can only find the IDE to SATA.

What's the application Z? If its in the pc, you should have that power connector.  If not, get a ide power splitter harness.

I got a new computer, and I have an IDE CD/DVD burner.  Well, I got the cheap CD burner with the computer thinking I could put my burner in it.  I have an adapter to connect the drive to the motherboard, but I can't power it.  The power supply only has SATA plugs on it.

For clarification, The opposite of this:

I already have that adapter.  That is just the data side of things, I need to power the drive.

8.8, 9.1, 9.2, 8.6, and 5.7 from the East German Judge

( for those of you that have worn diapers in the past 20 years, this relates to a very old summer olympics where the East german judge was always lower than any other judge)

He gave remarkably good scores to Eiii's joke, it clearly beat Cobo's...  I understood.   Although, I liked Cobo's also.
