7 Pin Din Power for External hard Drive

[mechanicalmoose]

Any thoughts on where I could get a 7 pin din to female power unit reasonably cheap or 2nd hand ? I thought I had the right one for my old External Hard Drive that's in a cradle but it turns out to be a 5 pin and not what I'm looking for.

Thanks (In Advance)

What type of hard drive? IDE, Sata? scsi?

Hi there,

It's IDE. I have all the connectors just not the 7 pin power lead. I used to have another PC so that would be fine but not any more sadly

i'm guessing you would need an adapter to turn a SATA power connector to a 7 pin like this

Thanks but no. I actually have the adaptor and cradle. What I'm looking for is the male circular 7 pin din that would fit into a female The same shape as the one that's plugged in here https://www.amazon.com/Insten-EXTERNAL-HARD-DRIVE-ENCLOSURE/dp/B004S62TBU/ref=sr_1_14?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1488906316&sr=1-14&keywords=ide+7+pin(assuming it's 7 pin and a UK socket.)

Thanks
