    If you've ever opened up the hdd panel and looked at the hard drive you notice that it is ribbon connected to a little "latch" on some kind of board...probably mobo. In the distant past someone snapped off the part that holds the hdd ribbon to the connectors. I need a new connector and don't know where on earth I'm going to be able to find one...

    So my question is: anyone know where i can find schematics to try and identify this connector?

    Second question: anyone have a dead 200arc they're parting out?

    I found out the part is called the drive cable clip by gateway support. Still don't know the part # or where I can get a replacement.
