I have a 2.5" IDE hard drive pulled from a laptop computer that I need
to access from a desktop machine.  Of course, the 2.5" drives don't
use the standard IDE cable--they have a smaller connector that
includes four extra lines for power.  Does anyone have (or know where
I can get) a cable for such a drive that can plug into a regular IDE
controller?  I've heard of mounting/installation kits for 2.5" drives
that include such a cable, but haven't had much luck finding one.  Any
help at all would be appreciated.
