hello, sorry for posting my slightly off topic email, but i have a very big problem: since my good ol' power book 100 died yesterday, i have several important data on this tiny hard disk (indeed, it has 20megs... wow!). i have had several 2,5" scsi hd's, but i never had to restore some data from them back to a mac... so i don't know the cable connection (which is data+, gnd etc.). i searched i a little database called 'loeten am mac', there are several listings containing such things -- no go. nothing listet there. it seems to me that using an old style (fast or) asynchronous scsi host adapter (built in every old, i.e. grey mac) should work; the cable to build would -- as far as i can see -- have to supply power to the disk (there are eight (?) pins dedicated for this on the hd). does anyone of you have a 'recipe' for building such a cable? tia, timo
