A lot of similarities between the Precision 3260 and the Optiplex 7010 Micro Plus mobo. I don’t have a pcie port so am limited there. But I’m gonna go check for the SATA ribbon port and see if I can cram a SATA SSD in there as a boot drive.

There’s an Amazon seller, Deal4GO, that has a lot of Dell stuff. Not sure if they’re coping or actually sourcing from Dell, but I’ve gotten things in the past and the parts seem legit.

They have the SATA ribbon and drive caddy as a kit under part numbers KYPMH (SATA ribbon) and DYTGC (caddy).

In their images the mobo screw between the SATA ribbon port and the pcie port comes out and the SATA/power port mounts there.

It took me a while to realize what it really was and only after I’d read the description.

It does not make the publication appear high brow but the opposite.
