Original Xbox 80-Wire IDE Cable Fold Tutorial for Standard 18" Short Cable

If you're like me and have a bunch of standard length IDE cables lying around and you're too cheap to buy longer ones, then this tutorial is for you. The fold is quite complex but it works, the cable is just long enough. I wasn't using a SATA adapter in this video but the cable will have a little bit more play if you were using one, since the IDE connector sits up a bit higher.
Sorry for the horrible breathing lol, my face was too close to the mic.

If you're gentle this works perfectly.

Awesome! Out of 24" cables but plenty of 18" I've hoarded over the years. This needs to be more known! Spread the word!

Horrible video 😂 but I’m glad I could help. I had the same issue, so I figured I’d share.
