pcmcia hard-hack - no need for right angled adapter in tower.

It is a pity that Boot_WB not show the photos. Interestingly, many people also dissected his Amiga? :rofl:

I actually did the same today with a RoamAbout 802.11 :-) Thanks for the great idea!

Now I understand what he wrote. :angry:  Very late. :roflmao:

What have I done? See below.. :hammer:

but if it works I won't knock it

It works, but I strongly don't recommend anyone to repeat. My idea was as follows: 1) Unsolder PCMCIA-connector from Amiga; 2) Solder back straight PCMCIA-connector. FAIL. Then I decided to use the trim HDD cable..

I want PCMCIA extension cable, guess that's a DIY job and a 44 wired 2.5" IDE cable should be nice starting point.

Don't discourage. It was a good experience. PCMCIA has 68 pins so 68 x 3 = 204 (from pcb, on connector and back again pcb). Cable should be short (limitation). Difficult to unsolder GND-pin, but a lot of them and it's not a problem. If you damage the other pins then signals can be taken from pcb. One guarantee: that's interesting and takes a lot of time. :laughing:
