Hi, everyone!
The most terrible mishap have just happened to my trusty and beloved Toshiba Gigabeat F40 player! Namely, I SNAPPED that fragile ZIF-cable (flat ribbon cable) that connects Toshiba 50-pin HDD (MK40004GAH, 3.3v) to the PCB!!! And... dunno what to do now, since I can´t seem to find a suitable replacement for it anywhere. I´ve scouted out the web for a possible match... but to no avail. Can anyone suggest me any solution to my woes, please? I´d be very much obliged. (I´ve searched through the forum for this topic as well)

My only suggestion is to purchase a cheap F10 / F20 on eBay, to use for parts. The HDD cable is those will definitely work with an F40.
If you find an "as-is" broken F10, they can usually be bought for less than $20 US.
