I got it to house the 20 MB first HD from my PowerBook 100 then replaced by a 100MB one. It made a fine Startup-and-tools add-on on my compacts.In addition to the Y-cable providing power from the ADB port, it came with a cable allowing it to get the current from the floppy port alternatively, which makes sense for the Plus which was before-ADB but had the DB-25 SCSI port.
