How many volts are needed to power this external drive?

A friend gave me an old Simpletech external 1TB hard drive, Prodrive model 96300-41001-185, but no power supply.
Online ads have the Output voltage blurred out for some reason!
I'm guessing that different Simpletech devices require different voltages ?
Can anybody tell me... What AC Adapter / How many DC volts does this thing need?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, FZ.
AND noting that the Center pin is positive. That's helpful.
From the inventory, I've got a 12 VDC, but with only 1.0 amp. . . hope that will be sufficient.
