How to connect Seagate Barracuda Super ATA drive into a Dell Dimension 4700?
I could really use some help on this one...I just cracked my father's
Dell Dimension 4700 to install a Seagate Barracuda Super ATA 120G drive as a second drive and the connectors look nothing like the ribbon connector on the back of the drive. This is the first I've seen of this type of connector, it's got like 4 pins and instead of being in series like the ribbon connector it attaches right to the motherboard. Do I need a different drive, or is there an adapter that will suffice? Thanks in advance for the help...

Are you sure it's a sata board and not an IDE or SCSI setup?
