 I cant just plug the drive in becasue, the plug in the SONY drive is different
from the plug coming out of the adapter board in the SS drive case...
anyway I know the pinouts to the adaptor board plug but need help finding the 
pinouts for the SONY, or a different method to hook it up...
any help would be appreciated..
