I have an old hard drive I found in the attic. I already have a 40 pin to USB cable, only thing I need is the 4 pin power cable. I checked online and found 4-pin to sata cables for like a dollar, would this cable power the old hard drive or do I need to purchase an actual power adapter that plugs into the wall? Thxs, I'm noob at computers, figured it's worth a shot asking posting in this forum, maybe someone with some wisdom can help me out :). Happy growing all!
