[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1905017, member: 175845"] You are worrying too much, and if the adapter has been approved for use in your country it doesn't matter how many pins that has or doesn't have, it will be safe to use. And by the way, if it is like most other adapters of the same type or like the one I have and use, if you are using a two and a half-inch Drive you won't even need the power side of the adapter as it will be bus-powered, the extra power is usually only needed to power up three and a half-inch drives that often use more power than the USB bus can supply. Good luck and just connect the adapter to your Mac and your old Drive and enjoy the files and photos you have been able to retrieve and rescue. - Patrick ======= [/QUOTE]
