   IBM PS/2 P75 and SCSI Terminator

   Hi all,   
      
   so now I bit the bullet and bought an P75 model, boots, 16 MB Ram works,   
   display works, new floppy works. Case is without cracks.   
   What doesn't work is the hard drive, does not make a sound, even on   
   external power. "New" one is on its way as is an External SCSI CD-ROM   
   drive (for installing OS/2 Warp)   
   Of course, the SCSI Terminator is missing, I found one in the UK, will   
   take a while until it gets to Berlin.   
   Now I am looking for a SCSI cable, and the mini Centronics variant is   
   unobtainium as it seems.   
   Any idea how to connect the External drive? Using a slot bracket and an   
   internal cable with 3 connectors?   
   Cheers
