I have recently taken apart some old PCs and found an HDD that uses this cable, but my motherboard doesn't seem to have a connector. Is there a way to connect this to SATA or PCIE?

edit: hdd, not ssd

IDE Cable. The end with two of these plugs goes to the drive, the end with one plug goes to the mobo. If it's a two-plug cable, it don't matter.

Get an IDE to SATA adapter or IDE to USB adapter to connect this drive.
