I'm trying to track down a power cable for a new SCSI HD that will plug
into the motherboard of my Duo Dock.  I'm trying to add a 2.1 gb SCSI
drive to the docking station and I've gotten everything in place except
the power line.  The plug on the board is configured as a four pin square
rather than the standard in-line four that you commonly see attached to
power supplies.  I've tried all the Mac MO houses and most either aren't
familiar with the Duo Dock, or they've never seen that plug configuration.

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.  

My apologies for the crossposting.

TIA,

Chuck

What you describe sounds like the kind used inside the IIci and LC475,
among others.  Shouldn't be too hard to find in that case (pardon the
pun)

That takes me wonder for all and any Mac I have taken apart so far, from
an old LC up to a 7600, have those 4-pins in a quader plug. So any
internal drive power cabler for mac should fit. Your only problem may be
length, but any HD power extension cable from the PC dealer should do
well in combination with any Mac HD power cable.
