Paul, I assume that you are talking about the connector on the drive? And it looks like a printed circuit board with 17 copper traces on the top and 17 copper traces on the bottom, and a slot cut between the 2nd and 3rd trace from one end? I suspect that what you have is the "old style" standard floppy disk connector, for which you need an "old style" floppy disk cable. There was also a period of time when floppy cables were made with both types of connectors, and there were also adapters made. I don't know where you live, but a computer store with something of a "hobbyist" slant should certainly be able to help you. Hope this helps, Randy Kramer
