This is a discussion on Building floppy drive cables - CP/M ; I need to add a couple more drive to an existing CCS controller and was wondering where someone can still find the cable and connectors to run either three or four drives....
I need to add a couple more drive to an existing CCS controller and was
wondering where someone can still find the cable and connectors to run either
three or four drives.

The "old" floppy drive cables were simply straight-thru ribbon cables.
No cable twist or oddities.
The only "trick" is planning what side/orientation for the connectors
depending on the drive orientation in the cabinet,
lest you fold and twist the cables for every drive.

Thanks for the info. This is what I was looking for. Sorry I didn't make it
clearer. I used Jade Electronics for parts like this when I was playing with
s-100 equipment before but I guess they are long gone. Thanks again I got the
cable parts I need now.
