Question Hd in Migy 1200

I got my self a 2.5 Inc HD for my migy
814 MB

It original comes from a laptop (whit crapy windows on it)
And i have absolutly no idea if it will work, i have not connected it yet, as i am afraid my migy will go sky high. (and i have no cable )
The hd is from Toshiba
on the label is also this: DC +5V 0.7A I know this from power suply
The connection on the back is just a 2.5 inc.....but i have an extra 4 pins left

So what i all need to get this HD fully working?

What you need ? Just get yourself a 44pin HD cable and plug it in (just be sure to have pin1 of the controller connected to pin1 of the HD, because the power also connects through that cable) ...

The extra pins are the drive's jumpers, which let you alter its position on the drive chain (it can either be a master or a slave). This makes no difference to you, however, as you've only got one drive.

set as master, plug in 44way cable correctly, put A1200 back together.

Power on, use HDTools to kill off PC partition, then repartition and format, hey presto, HD for your miggy...
