Dell Inspiron 8600 HD adapter plug

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

Hi everyone,

Dealing with Dell spare parts is hopeless.They seem to be more interested in
gathering information for surveys than answering questions and finding out
part numbers.

I need the very small adapter plug that plugs into the standard HD and provides
the board-edge connectors that make contact with the internal connector inside
the HD bay. This is the main HD bay, not the modular bay on the right.

Can anybody point me to a web site, a part number, a vendor, a manufacturer?
Somebody must make this adapter for Dell...

Thanks.
