I don't have a circuit board but I have seen in another forum a way to get the drive working again that involves a little microsurgery.

You would solder two small wires (28-32 guage works) to the circuit card where the two broken pins are attached. Next plug an IDE cable into the drive. Then splice the two new wires to the two wires in the cable. You'll need to separate wires in the cable to get to the two you need to splice.

Radio Shack or DigiKey will have the entire connector which will require desolder/soldering

If you dont want to go that way and cant get one here then i suggest you join up with a few forums that have a trading section. For instance, tech-imo, anandtech, etc, etc. You will definitely get what you want there. Talk to people with a lot of posts there and they will help you.


Good advice + great people = tek-tips
