My friend gave me a hard drive, but it needs a power adapter. It is a 200GB Maxtor internal with a NexStar USB 2.0 external enclosure. I don't want to buy the wrong power adapter, maybe someone here knows which kind I should get. Here is a picture of the plug.

Thanks

From what I could find on google, you need this kind of adaptor, but I'm not sure about the 4pins, you'll just need to phone around:

AC 120/230 V ( 50/60 Hz )
