Hi, I recently purchased a wd 400gb mybook from eBay, with the external casing removed. The person claimed he cracked the case, and took it off and was going to put another on but didnt have time so he sold it off cheap. I figured it was a steal at $50, and got it. It works and all, but I am trying to figure out what the connectors on the board are so I can make my own enclosure for it. One is a two pin connector that looks like either a jumper cap goes on it, a push button switch, or led light connects to it, and is labeled 'J10'. The other is longways down against the board on the edge, looks like the female end that pins stick into, 5 holes across and 2 high, and is labeled 'J2'. If anyone has ripped apart a mybook and has an idea, I'd like to know before I stick a power switch on a led connector and blow something up! :) ps - I think its the essential edition one, as it only has usb and no firewire. Thanks, - Dave
