Post by thread:HD Connector Needed

Anybody have a part number for the 2.5" IDE disk drives for the power/data connection? I'm putting one in a PIC project but I can't identify the connector. SMT or thru-hole is fine. Thanks.

There's a Molex part number given in the ATA-3 spec (available on Western Digital's FTP site somewhere), and Farnell sell them. I think Farnell includes them as part of their PCB interconnection system, as something like '2mm double-row PCB socket'.
