Hi All,
I have a bit of an unusal query. I purchased a 'set' of cables for connecting an external hard drive. This came with various drive connectors -IDE,SATA- and a power supply. The unusual bit is that the female molex only has three live holes - yellow, black, empty, red. Th connector between black aand red has no connection.
The adapter has an ouput rating of 5v 2.5A and 12V 2.5A and the disk I am looking at driving has a powwer rating of 5V 0.65A and 12V 0.5A.
My question is: could I connect a second female molex and lead ablack cable from the adapter into the new female molex, thereby proving the correct configuration?
Thanks
Harry
