I have a Micropolis 4221 drive that was housed in an APS enclosure. The power supply failed, and I decided to install it in my Macintosh G3 B/W, but I cannot seem to understand the way to jumper it.
In the meantime, I obtained another APS enclosure that has a good power supply BUT I dont remember how to connect the various wires (there are four sets (1) a red/black pair with 2 pins, (2) a red/black/black set with a 3 pin connector, (3) a single black wire that is spliced into two black wires that connect to the outside pins of a 3 pin connector, and (4) a yellow/yellow pair that end in what looks like a small capacitor)
Looking at the connector strip, it looks like this:
� � � � � � � � � � �� � ��
� � � � � � � � � � �� � ��
The 3 pin connectors will only fit on one row or the other, while the two pin connector fits either way (i.e. vertically or horizontally).
NOW, can any one tell me how to (A) hook up the enclosure wires, or (B) jumper the drive so it will work inside of my G3?
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
