my old Hard Disk Drive needs a ribbon attachment but the Hard Disk Drive it is attaching to has a (P5) 5 pin plug.

Can I get an addapter to convert the ribbon to a 5 pin plug?

Thank for your help!

Here's one solution. It's probably a little slower than a direct connection, and it looks like the the little card "dangles" in the case.
