I just got finished removing the laptop from my dad's old broken powerbook g4. The drive is ide. However when I try to hook the laptop up to a regular IDE cable the drives IDE connectors are a tad smaller then my cable, and probably any other cable. Is there anywhere that I can buy an IDE cable to match the laptop hard drives? and eventually be able to hook it up to my main desktop?

edit: This probably belongs in the hardware section, my apologies.

Yeah, 2.5" drives are not 3.5" drives.

Get this, and plug the drive in with USB.
