Hi Tom, thanks for your post.
My Apple lisa works fine with an external Apple Profile Drive. I have also a Sun remarking widget drive, i connect it on the lisa parallel port but it doesn't work, there is no working activity (no noise). I read the post from Sterling and i suppose that the control board must be powered (see the 5 pin connector on picture: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19080695/IMG_1433.jpg). The only connector coming from the lisa is a 3 pin connector (see second picture:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19080695/IMG_1434.jpg). The question is how can I connect the power to the controller board (cables correspondence)?
