Not totally convinced enough power could pass down the IDE ribbon cable with that device. In a laptop does it plug directly into the laptop's circuits without using a cable?


Something like this might be better. It has a separate 4-pin molex IDE power socket. Same item seems to be available from different suppliers on Amazon.
