What I want is an IDE fuse to be placed on a PCB, you know the one that there's on HDDs and on mobos. There's a pic Where can I find such a thing?
my guess is that he wants a resistor block or something. NicEXE- please illustrate better what you're looking for.
The same component shown in the picture (with the plastic frame, not just the pins) (there is a blue and a black one right down the ram slots) I could also do my mod as well with a cable with the same connector at the end.
That's a fairly common part. The reason you can't find it is most likely because you're searching for a fuse and that is most definately NOT a fuse. It's just a 40 pin male IDE header. Google turns up plenty of shops selling them. Here's one of the first hits: http://www.pacificcable.com/More_Pages/IDEIDHCon/40-Pin-IDE-Connector.html Hope this helps. -hl718
