The link to Aliexpress doesn't seem to work (or at least, I see a flash of an image but then it redirects to a 404 error). I tried some google-fu, and divined that it might be

https://www.aliexpress.com/i/3256804880520824.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt#nav-specification

(the "Color: To 2.5 IDE 180 Male" version)

And to my eye, that looks like it's probably this:

https://www.amazon.com/Xiwai-Female-Converter-Adapter-Laptop/dp/B09PL9C44D/ref=sr_1_4

Can anyone confirm that this is likely to work? I powered up my Empeg for the first time in a while a few days ago, and the drive is all clicks and clacks and "Contact support". So I'm looking to maybe replace it ... and I'm cheap. smile

Thanks!
