24-Inch 40-Pin Dual IDE Cable
This internal ribbon cable connects two IDE devices such as a hard drive and an optical drive using a single 40-pin interface. The 24-inch length provides reach inside standard chassis layouts. Gray colouring matches legacy component aesthetics.
Suits legacy PATA drive installations
Builders adding a second drive to an existing IDE channel will find the dual connectors convenient. Systems that require rounded cables for airflow management or serial ATA interfaces should look at other options.
