Drive connector types?
« on: January 05, 2012, 03:01:17 pm »
heys, everyone. i have a hard drive and a disc drive that i took out of a very old laptop and would like to repurpose. the problem is, though, that i'm not sure exactly what type of connectors they use. what are these? the first one is a 30 gig fujitsu hard drive, the second is an hp disc drive, and they both appear to have 1.8" connectors (i don't have a ruler handy)

This might be some old revision of IDE. I might check further. Maybe a specially made for laptops connector.
