Dears; Till that monment, I did not get my answer. What shall I do when the power supply in the PC does not have a NORMA power connector to use it for the DIGIUM card? The only available connectors are SATA power connector. So is there a convertor to convert from SATA to NORMAL? Or what should I do? Maybe I understood that I have to use extenal power supply to supply electrical for the card? Am correct? Regards Bilal ------------------------------ On May 4, 2008 08:40:10 pm Jay R.

Sometimes they're right, but generally when they ask me to do something they are asking me because they are unable to do it themselves, so I am extra-cautious when they won't follow my advice. -A. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

Well, why Digium is still using this kind of power connector while all new machines does not come with these types? Regards Bilal ------------ Bilal, I linked a store and product for you in the thread already. A simple google search will turn up hundred if not thousands of suppliers. Just google "Sata to Molex power" turns up a quarter million hits.

The flash IDE drives I buy need legacy power connectors, and since convertors are trivially avalable why is it an issue? Gordon

For that reason, we sell an adapter that should help you out.
