External Hard drive...

[1badcj8]

Was not sure where to put this so I put it here...

I've got an external drive case that I bought some time ago... Its got to plug-ins on the end, one for USB and the other looks somewhat like an **S-VIDEO** plug, but its a bit different. I'm assuming that this is to power it up some how but I do not have the cable for it. I need to use it now and I got it so long ago that I have no idea if it even came with one or if it did where I would have put it .

Any one know what this cable is or is called?

Could you take a picture of it and post it up here?

Yeah I found what it is... Its a 6 pin power supply +12V - +5V Plug like the pic attatched. Any one have any idea where one of these could be bought? I tried ebay but they are all in Hong Kong and I need one tomorrow ~shrug~...

Well I was going to post a picture but it does not look like I can...

Upload the pic to imageshack then post it.

Some desktop PSUs have 6 pin connectors?
Do you mean like that?

Or is it an AUX connector like this? (God forbid)

Is the plug round and look like a s-video connection?

Does it look like the connection right above the on/off switch?

It looks like this:

I have found them on eBay but I really need to try to buy one locally today...

You could try a local computer shop or Best Buy if you have one close.

Nope no one locally has one... it astounds me that these are on eBay like flies, even USA places, but I cant buy one locally. And places wonder why no one shops locally any more, this is a perfect example of why.

Thanks for the ideas though it is appreciated...
