I have one, and it uses an oddball connector, too, which is one of the reasons I haven't gotten around to fixing the drive yet (which has problems), I need to make an extension power cable for the drive so it can be powered up and out in front of the case. (Snip) ----------------Reply: Sounds like you've got one of the later System 3's with a Tandon TM848; the older ones used dual-slot Perscis, which used 110VAC for the motor. And of course he could also use a 5 1/4" drive instead. m
