Thanks. Confirming my earlier searches, those don't mention cable
being included, so I'll have to order one.

BTW, I'd also asked the supplier, via their Contact link:
"Does this comes with the necessary connecting cable please?"
And got this potentially misleading but presumably legally correct one
line answer from After Hours Computers:
"As a retail packaged product the R-133 comes with all correct
equipment."

I gather that despite the HD having 40 pins (I counted 39 actually; I
assume there's one missing to identify correct orientation), the
correct type of cable is called '80-pin IDC cable, yes?

Here is just an idea: Get an USB box and use it externally:) or a plastic
box and a USB2IDE adapter + power supply:) I'm using this:)

Or Clone ur present HDD to the new one, use the new one as master then use
the old on as a USB drive:)

Use Powerquest Drive Image to clone:)
