[SOLVED] AC power supply adapter for IDE HDD

[eastbysouth]

My friend's ageing PC has finally packed up. We have extracted the HDD and need to see if we can get a few MS Word documents so he can carry on with his projects. We have managed to get an IDE connector from the HDD to a PC via a USB. Now we need to get power to it via a molex connector. The only ones are from China with a long delivery delay. I've been looking around and discovered that what we need is at the bottom of this post. We would be grateful to know if there is a UK supplier. Thanks.

Had one of these for ages, comes with the sata/ide to usb too (which you already own) but it's about the same price without.
