New optical drive in 7-year-old PPC Mac: SATA is not SATA anymore.
I am trying to replace the original SATA Superdrive in my Powermac. I got a new, apparently identical SATA DVD/CD drive from Samsung. When I tried to install it, I can't because the SATA interfaces on the new drive do not match the SATA 40-pin ribbon cable and 4-prong power cable of the computer. Can anyone suggest a decent adapter, or am I SOL? Yes, I called Samsung about it. They said "Get an adapter". OK, name one. Any ideas?
