Hi All,
Does the Technomate need the official combined sata cable, as I can't see anywhere to plug the power cable into the board...
Thanks in advance
Hopefully these are self explanatory.

Great thanks - makes sense,
I don't have that kind of cable, I think I found someone on amazon selling it for £1.46 (....and £8.29 delivery lol)

But I would be better of with the kit than that, do you know anyone that sells the cable by it self?
Actually the one in the amazon link I think its 2pin and wrong, should be 4pin right, like..

Still abit pricey for a cable...
The sponsor sells them. You need the caddy to mount it as well as the fan. Not sure how much P&P

It only uses 5 volts, this is why there are only two wires. If you have the metal work, you can modify your cable.
In the end I went for a botched job, a £5 cable delivered from China, took about 10 days to arrive from here -> http://imall.iteadstudio.com/im130814001.html
Put some soft foam under the hard drive, to keep it away from the circuit board, and screwed it in from underneath through an existing hole to keep it in place! Pic attached incase anyone else is a cheap skate like me!

note, the cable from china although is ok, you need to sheer away the teeth of the plastic abit to make it fit into the 2pin power connector on the board.
