Looking for a Male to Female IDE Ribbon
<< < (2/2)
BASS!:
I have a better option. Just mod the hard drive adapter, and move the IDE port over. Thats what I do. tools needed

Dremel
tin snips
screw driver set
zip ties
hot glue

MonMotha:
Or just get a hard drive that fits directly onto the network adapter without modifications.  Pretty much anything OTHER THAN Western Digital seems to work.  Seagate/Maxtor (now the same company, but they are keeping the brands separate) are pretty much guaranteed to fit.

I did mine as well, but I just busted it all to hell until it fit. Those were the PRE-BYOAC days...before I thought things through better....

I'm using a WD in mine, just with the network adapter modded to fit it.
