[Asterisk-Users] Digium Cards in Boxes without Power Connectors

Many of the slim compaq/hp boxes don't have DC power cables at all - the
PSU plugs right into the mainboard which plugs directly into the daughter-
booard that the SCSI hotplug drives plug into. They don't have floppy
drives and the cdrom is a laptop-style job which plugs into that SCSI
board directly.

Ie. No cables.
