2009-03-25 03:44:25INCORRECTThere should be two pins at 0V, one for the 5V supply and one for the 12V supply. Without those, the only DC power you could get is 7V (ie. 12 minus 5).rev. 2APPROVED
2009-06-05 16:02:03ERROR FIXEDThis appears to make no sense, how can there possibly be four positive connectors, surely two needs to be earths/groundsrev. 3APPROVED
2009-08-14 23:44:58INCORRECTpin can not be +5 and +12 all missing -5 and -12... :-(((rev. 3APPROVED
2009-10-12 20:00:02ERROR FIXEDHi, according to the picture on the power adapter I have for the seagate external harddrive with a male connector: 1 = + 12V 2 = + 5V 3 = GND 4 = GND Kind regards, Tamer Oral 1 = +12Vrev. 3APPROVED
2009-10-13 15:00:37CORRECTI have verified this by repairing a broken male connector (broken pins). The Seagate harddrive is operational again (model: ST3250823A).rev. 4APPROVED
2010-02-09 11:29:43CORRECTIt is +5, +12, gnd, gnd, as I have measured it with my multimeter. However I'm not sure of the order.rev. 5APPROVED
2010-08-05 04:01:35INCORRECTThe corrections are INCORRECT on this pinout. The Authoritative reference (http://support.seagate.com/kbimg/4985-10.jpg) proves it. What is missing is the fact that the SHIELD of the cable is ground. There is no way to express that in the table, though.rev. 5APPROVED

2009-10-23 10:08:48Tamer Oralrev. 5I have verified this by soldering the broken male connector (connected to the power supply). The Seagate harddrive, model ST3250823A is operational again.
