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

    Yes there was a window of time where it was common that a CD-ROM drive was sold with a sound card and they would connect using the same type of ribbon cable. I worked for an OEM PC assembly company and installed many of those.
