Review: This has non-keyed connectors - that's a good thing. - I needed this cable to test out a TEAC 3.5" drive with a manufacturing date back in 1991. That was before drive connectors were keyed in any way; you needed to read the silkscreening on the drive, and at the motherboard or floppy card, in order to see which way to plug in the ribbon cable. My drive has no pins omitted, and no notch in a molding around the pins, in order to help the user. The first ribbon cable I tried was keyed at both ends, with pin 3 blocked - it was therefore useless to me. By comparison, this ribbon cable was exactly what I needed and works well. ** If you're not familiar, the red edge of the ribbon cable aligns with Pin 1 at both your floppy drive and at the motherboard/floppy board header.** On my motherboard, there wasn't any marking for Pin 1, but the motherboard had a silkscreened thick line going around only that corner of the header to indicate it.
Review: Good cable - Not much can be said a out a ribon cable. The cable was constricted nicely and like the origional cable for floppy drives it was made for both types of connectors used on them. I would buy this cable again.
