Unfortunately, those round cables won't work with Amigas as they are the newer 80 wire cables and Amigas require the older cables.

Half of those 80 wires are just ground, the remaining 40 wires are same old, so they should work just fine on Amiga too.

I know, I tried to use them and no dice.

Quite certain I used blue 80 wire cables in one of my A4000s back in the day.

And now I am just seeing this..
You say that you did get a round cable to work with the 4000? 

Do you have a brand name or better yet a link that we can purchase these?

It was 20 years ago, I used left over cables from Compaq computers at work.
Disks and cables have since long been replaced by brackets and SD or CF card adapters.
