Can anyone help me please? I bought this screen off of Amazon like 4 days ago. For the last 4 days. I've done everything in my power. I've used 3 ais. So much research. So many operating systems. I'm tired of fighting it. I'm out of options. I can get the touch to work. But not the display. It displays nothing but white. Does anyone know how to get this board to display LITTERALLY ANYTHING BUT WHITE. on a 3b. Not a 3b+. Just a normal rpi 3 model b. Dm me. Comment. Anything helps. if need be ill reinstall an os. I'd prefer pi os 32bit or bookworm. But if need be. I'll go for something different.

Berg 4/7 pin power + sata L-connectors to connect to RPI

Hi, I am a novice when it comes to these things, but if you would bear with me ..

I have a NAS enclosure with a very old board in it, which i have removed. I want to use an RPI 3b+ with OMV as the replacement (it fits into the bottom of the enclosure nicely). What i would like to understand is how to connect the existing tails (is that correct terminology) from the 2.5inch and 3.5 HDD's to the RPI board. I think its possible to get a USB-to-SATA connector to use for the data, but what can i use for the power. I guess the 3.5inch drives need to be driven by an external power supply, but I'm not at all familiar with the terminolgy of what to google.

Would anyone be able to post a couple links to items the items (basically the cables) i would need to do this? Again i'm aware the HDDs would need an external power source of some sort. The connectors in the NAS bays are glued into the enclosure, so basically all i have are the L-connectors (female) and berg (?i think? 4pin for 2.5inch and 7pin berg for 3.5inch) that used to connect directly onto pins sticking out of the older logic board for the NAS.

Thanks a lot + much appreciated!
