Where can I get SCSI headers?

Where can I get SCSI headers?

Post by Klefmung »

Where can I get good SCSI headers and ribbon cable in order to easily relocate the cartridge slot like I have seen on some website?

Digi-Keyfor the SCSI headers. IIRC they are under IDC Headers. Make sure you get the 50 pin ones. For the cable I would say a locally owned computer store might have some. You might have to look around for that.

Digi-key is too confusing. A link would be nice.

it is turning out to be particularly hard to find pin header thats in-stock and not sold in minimum quantities of 30+.

CWN-350-50-0000 appears to be equivalent to a striaght scsi header but is out of stock
CWN-370-50-0000 is more expensive but in stock.

CWN-300-50-0000 is right-angle and in-stock.

So do these plug into cart slot? or do they plug into a scsi cable? or do they plugin to the place where the cart slot plugs in?

You jam SCSI headers into the place where the pins on the cart slot went. then the scsi cable to the headers. Then Jam the pins on the cart slot into the holesn the other end of the SCSI cable.

"I'll jam my pins into your holes." Yea, get over it. I didn't mean it like that.
