But I don't have a computer that I can connect it to. Last week I had a waterleak in my computer so I decided to sell the machine (after cleaning up and making sure it works of course). My sister has a desktop but my drive is SATA+SATA power, her PSU doesn't have the sata power connectors, only molex, and this drive doesn't have a molex connection.

The other computer is a laptop so I can't do anything with that.

I thought I could format it in my sisters PC but apparently not, and I'm supposed to ship the drive today. Anything I can do?
 
Run to Best Buy or Fry's or whatever store is close by and get one of those external USB to ATA/SATA adapters, like this one:

That's about all you can do - you can't do anything to that drive until you can attach it to something, so... gotta get the attachment.
 
20? That's a third of what I sold the drive for :p

But phew, I had a molex->SATA power (not sure what they're called exactly) cable in my motherboard box
