That's right. There are two plastic-housed models that differ only in the power adapter--and worse, you can completely toast one by using the wrong adapter. I'm staring at two drives here--and they don't differ in model numbers and the serial numbers aren't that far apart. But there is one easy way to tell the difference.
Look at the metal plate on the back of the drive with the etched "POWER, PRINTER, COMPUTER" legends. Now look at the space between the two DB-25 connectors on your left and the power connector and switch on your right. About midway between top and bottom of the plate in the space between the DB25s and the power connector, there will either be an empty hole or a hole filled with a Phillips-head screw.
If you have the screw, you'll note that inside, it holds a TO-220 regulator against the plate as a heatsink. This is the AC version and will take a 9-12VAC wall wart for power.
If what you have is an empty hole, you've got the DC version and will need a 5VDC @1600 mA power source. Center of the connector is +; shell is -.
The cable between the BP and your computer is a DB25M->DB25F "straight through"--all 25 pins are connected, no twists or jumpers inside.
Hope this helps. At one time, a fellow on eBay was selling these NOS for $0.99 each + shipping. I think I bought 6-8 of them; shipping was $14. The guy had picked them up as part of a government auction lot; he had about 500 of the things.
