| 760743 | 2009-03-30 06:32:00 | My Western Digital 640GB External's AC adaptor has died. It's a 12V/5V output, and the power connector is a 5 pin DIN, i think. Where can I get a replacement? Or, better, is it possible to mod it so that it's powered internally by the power supply? Thanks! :banana:banana:banana:banana |

What else could it be? Its pretty much a 3.5" SATA/IDE hard drive inside a flash case that makes it look like it isn't. Give me the model no. and I'll give you at tutorial on how to get the hard drive out |
