Sata Connector for SSD Question (Further Details Inside)
I had this question rolling around in my cranium ever since I saw a listing on ebay for non-working SSD's that had their SATA connectors trashed. I don't know if those connectors are proprietary enough, but is it possible that I can take a sata connector from either a same type/version ssd (lets say for example a connector from an 860 QVO SSD of any capacity that has a perfect non broken SATA part, pins and all) and replace a broken one from either the same SSD type/name or from a higher tier 2.5" SSD of a different type/name/brand
OR could I take the sata connectors from desktop/laptop HDD/SSHD drives instead and splice them onto SSD's/HDD's/SSHD's with broken connectors. Or are the SATA parts made in a way that my idea can never happen without problems
