You'd be better off getting a DB25M to CEN50M SCSI cable then finding an external SCSI case with the normal internal SCSI and power connections. Then you can pull the adaptor off the drive and connect it to the external SCSI port of the LC520. That setup will come in handy a lot if you're planning to do a bunch of work with Macs. :) *Well, you could do some major hacking on the wiring harness and have a Mac dismantled all over your worktable.... Might just be best to get a IIci or newer Mac that isn't an all in one type. :) ===== http://www.junkscience.com "All the Junk that's fit to Debunk!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
