[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] 3.5" power plug looks weird ... help

ctt31684@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu (... C H I N G ...) (12/04/90)

I have a 3.5" floppy drive and I'm trying to add it to my AT comp. machine.
The data plug on the drive fits my controller's data cable, so I guess that
works.  But the power plug on the drive is smaller than my power supply's
power cable.  What can I do to fix this problem?  I tried finding a "kit"
that usually comes with 3.5" but I can't find it (I think that has the
hardwares needed to connect the 2 power things).  Also, I'm wondering if I
can just connect some wire from the power supply's plug into the drive's
power plug (both of them have 4 wires).
Thanks...
