Einstein TC-01 Floppy power cable

Hi All,

I'm just about finished with bringing an Einstein TC-01 back from the dead and the final part is a floppy power cable for the second floppy drive. I can't seem to find the plug side that fits into the M009 power socket on the motherboard. Does anyone have a spare cable or can point me to somewhere to buy the motherboard side plug so that I can build a cable?

I see from the service manual that it's an SE220 National Pressac plug which I'm sure is no more now..

I could stick a floppy power splitter in between the drives and run them both from the first drive power socket I guess.. not sure if that would cause problems though in terms of when both drives are operating at the same time (power draw).

Any help/ideas would be appreciated.

That's all the original power cable is, a single plug to 2 drives. Should be ok with a splitter.
