I need to replace the wire for an ext. dvd drive as it's lost but I can;t search for it as I don;t know what to call it. It's the one with the black rectange power box thing on it and the connector part is round with little silver prongs inside.

  1. I think you are trying to describe "power adapter". Depending on your dvd drive you will need a specific one with specific current output. You should be able to find the power requirement at the back face of the dvd drive.


  2. Are you talking about the power adapter? The thing that plugs into the wall on one end, and then into the DVD on the other?

    You'll most likely need to search the manufacturer's site for replacement parts, as I would not trust a universal unit.  You may have to call the manufacturer with your unit information.

  3. An AC adapter?

  4. possibly a firewire or usb, or the power supply cord
