    You need at least a molex splitter an a molex connector since you need to power the one device that you have connected an make the other one run down to the drive.
    I shouldn't need anything more than the molex splitter. The drive is IDE but I added an ATA PCI adapter card to connect the IDE HDD's to. So all I need is to get power to them via the splitter  :)
    Unless I'm missing something.

      I'm not signed up for email notifications, thank goodness  :P
      I went to a local "mom and pop" PC shop to get the connector but he doen't carry them. Thought I'd support a local PC Tech in this down economy but he said they are so inexpensive and so rarely requested that it's not worth it for him to order and pay for the shipping or something like that. Oh well, back to Newegg!  ;D
