The 750 also has no standard power connectors in it. Since it is SATA it has only the SATA connectors and the floppy power connector. However, I'm sure an adapter could be made.

Just curious if anyone knows how to hack a drive power connector into a Dell 1650? The motherboard power connector doesn't have any leads putting out a true 5V, all are under 4V except the ones putting out 12V seem to go higher (most power supplies do). I was successful in installing GBWare by putting a PCI IDE card in and powering the CF chip off of the power connector from a nearby PC. Boots and runs fine. I had to do the install in the PC as the Belkin IDE card (silicon image chip) isn't recognized by the installer, but it boots and runs fine after installation is complete. Theoretically, those of you having problems with the PowerEdge 750's might be able to install to the drive outside the chassis in another box, then move the drive back. Note to GTA: The installer seems to be the item with the problem, the OS seems to recognize most standard IDE and SATA controllers.
