Project Ferretcage received an important new part today.
A part it can't use yet.
If you missed a while back, somewhere in the throes of Quake benchmarking, I unearthed my own custom Little Guy. Ferretcage is a mini-ITX motherboard living in a plastic project box, featuring the largest, brightest power button I could possibly have bought from the junk shop. In its last configuration, Ferretcage needed a whole lot of components to live outside the case, like its hard drive and ATX power supply; that's what I'm (partially) trying to solve with these parts.
I actually forgot that IDE headers came in two different form factors, and neglected to check whether this IDE disk on module (16 gigabytes!) was the correct one for a desktop size header. So now that I've got the thing, I can't plug it in, because I don't own any adapters from one to the other.
Time to order more parts... might as well also grab a PicoPSU while I'm at it.
