So what are the restrictions on the early Apple supplies. I've beenthinking about the implemenation of a USB-Disk II interface. One of theissues is a power supply for a Disk II (+5/-5/+12/-12). One of easiestsolutions would be an Apple II supply, but I'm not sure if there isenough current draw from an idle Disk II. Any thoughts out there?

When IBM first shipped the PC/AT the hard disk was optional.
A resistor (with a disk drive style connector) was supplied,

I have a similar card from a Sun SparcStation 1.
