pauljh Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Hi All, I have a gotek with HXC firmware I want to put in my 520STE but the cable is too short to be twisted, no problem so I got a longer floppy cable, but it appears one end of the floppy cable is not standard pins and is mounted to the PCB?, is this correct, or is mine just really stiff?

galax Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I think the other end of the cable is a different connector or soldered to the PCB depending on the model. You need an extension cable: http://www.lotharek.pl/product.php?pid=138 (probably tons of other places you could buy them, or buy the parts and make your own, just I know Lotharek sells them so linked to him as an example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exxosuk Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I've made loads of custom lengths for people for such situations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauljh Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 Woohoo great!, thank you, its lucky I didn't try and rip it off with brute strength (actually I did but managed to get it back on).. Anyone remember the name of the St Music demo which played SID tracks?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauljh Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 Well talk about not very subliminal advertising purchased an UltraSatan aswell... Not sure why I'm telling random internet peeps this?, probably child hood issues with lack of affection from the parents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
