    I use the desktop for power. I shut down the desktop, open it up and unplug the DVD SATA connector from the motherboard (or use a separate SATA cable plugged into the DVD player) and plug it into the USB adapter then restart the desk top computer. In the past I’ve also used the IDE portion of the adapter.
