    Hi there,
    I assume this is the right forum to ask this in. I've been told there's two types of FPC, one single and one dual, which either allow one hard drive or two hard drives to be connected to the laptop internally. Mine unfortunately came with just the single version of the FPC. I want to know if there's anywhere where I might be able to get the dual version of the SATA FPC (as I only have one SATA port it seems, which I imagine is why there's a dual FPC cable) (I'm from the UK)? If I'm wrong about this then please feel free to correct what I've been told.

    Also if there is a dual connector version of the FPC cable, is it compatible with SSD SATA drives (2.5" of course)?

    Many thanks.
