Longer IDE cable
« on: September 06, 2004, 09:37:55 PM »
Hi all,

As some of you might have noticed I'm building a Flicker Fixer in my A1200 desktop in my spare time.

I need to relocate the harddisk but I was wondering if the IDE will still work well if I extent the cable to the harddrive a centimeter or 5.

Did anyone do this to a stock IDE in a A1200?

Regards,
Erno

Good to read that.

I'll be extending the cable around wednesday and then the job is about done and I will have to think about something else to tinker with.....did I notice some rust on my beetle there?

Anyway thanks for all the help.

Erno
