    Does anyone know if this would be possible? I know the part for the HDD wouldn't hook up but could I hook up the parts for DVD Emu?

    There's no way, the hardware is far too different.

    So there would be no way? Wouldn't it work if I routed the dvd drive through it? I mean I'm not trying to run the hard drive on just hook the DVD emu part up. I may just try and see what kind of results I get. I don't think it would hurt anything would it?

    How do you recommend on pulling the extra power?

    Or you can solder directly.
