Old ATA cables...

I need some, the standard stuff from hard drives of the 90s. Even the smaller kind that were used on floppy drives would work.

I'm doing a bit of electronics modifications, and I can't find my old stash of cords, might have tossed it when I moved.

I'm looking preferrably for donated materials here, naturally I'd pay a bit for shipping costs. I don't need the connectors so it could probably be cut off and mailed in an envelope.

Anyway, just thought I'd check here and see if I could find any donators.


FYI: I'm building a custom NES/SNES/N64 box. Depending on how compact I can make it, it's either getting a custom fabricated case, or I'm going to jam it all in an NES brick.

It'd probably be easier and cheaper just to order a new cable right from Monoprice.

I might have a floppy cable or two. How many do you need?
woot!

I always say this: Schools and recycling places.
I have enough IDE/ATA cables to last me forever, as well as a ****load of other useless junk.

I only need a handful depending on how long they are. I forget how many wires there are on each, but most of these will either go into relocating pin connectors, or running other signal wires. All of which have to be less than 6in long.
