I am looking for floppy drive cable with an edge connector that is not keyed to go with the pictured adapter. Does anyone know where one could be sourced from?

Would it work just cutting the keying out from a keyed connector? Or add your own connector to an existing cable (searching for '34 way idc card edge connector' seems to give a few options)?

I tried cutting out the keyed part of a standard card edge connector, but I ended up breaking the internal pins each time. That is why I am looking for premade solution.
Why not just key the card ? a simple saw would do.
Right to repair is fundamental. You own it, you're allowed to fix it.

I thought about doing that, but I would rather source a cable instead.
google for "34 pin Flatcable PCB edge connector"
