when i get a hard drive that isnt, when its OEM, what does it mean when u need additional power ADAPTER? Please look here this is the hard drive i am probably going to get : http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=22-148-018&depa=0
I would imagine so ... those adapters arent cheap down to the point like their PATA brethen are so I wouldnt imagine they would be free. You can always goto a quiet computer store and ask around ... they might just give them away cuz they arent THAT expensive either
