where to find UMD ribbon cable?
« on: October 28, 2008, 07:35:01 PM »
I have been to thinking of taking out my UMD drive and making it external, however i am stuck when it comes to the ribbon cable and something to link two together (a dock type thing with two recieving ends to extend the cable). I dont know where i could find one or something to extend it. If any one could help me i would be very happy.
thank you.  :help:

Hi,
Count me the pins for the two connectors, and I Will find you one in 5 minutes.
And also, you will need a custom circuitboard to connect them together.
