## Description

IDE 40-Pin Male to Female Hard Drive Extension Cable 6 inch Flat Ribbon Cord for 3.5" PATA HDD (39 Pin + 1x Empty).

Review: I bought this because the IDE cable couldn't reach the adapter mounted at the back of the PC. This worked perfectly and I was able to reach and fit into the IDE port on the adapter.
Review: I recently rebuilt my older gaming system that uses IDE hard drives cables into a new tower case and found my old cables would not long enough to reach the drives in their new location... I found this nice little extension cable and it solved all my issues! Its very we built and properly keyed to prevent incorrect installation and worked great for both my hard drives. I only need a few inches of extra cable and this gave me double that. Its a very effective product that does what its advertised to do. Thumbs up!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I need a 40 pin 2 1/2" long, flat ribbon to hook up an internal female to female  HD.**
A: It's not correct cable you want. This is Male to Female cable.

**Q: Is it compatible with raspberry pi?**
A: Yes, it works with my Pi devices (3 & 4).  I use it to extend the environmental board away from the processor.

**Q: Will this work with an internal floppy dive?**
A: Count the pins on your floppy drive. If the drive has 39 pin positions and one empty slot then this cable should work for you. Some internal floppy drives need less pins to work so be sure of the number of pin positions.

**Q: Does this work on Zip drives?**
A: Yes it will work on internal Zip Drives only.
