I recently picked up an LTE 5400 but it's missing the hard drive and caddy/enclosure - including the IDE to proprietary Compaq adapter. I've seen loose adapters sold on eBay but I'm not sure which may be compatible between old Compaq laptop series... LTE 5000 series parts seem to be rare and come at a premium. Hoping I'll get lucky and find there a compatible adapter out there somewhere - my goal is to use compact flash for storage.
Was having difficulties finding a lot of info on this topic and I'm stumped - anyone have any advice? Please see attached for an image of the port inside the dedicated hard drive bay.
Thank you! 😀
