    Is a savin 8025 e hardrive and connector the same as a ricoh aficio 2027?

    hi
    I havent touched these models in quite some time but am trying to
    donate a working2027 from a law firm that i pulled the hd a long time ago with the connector/harness.
    I cant locate it but am replacing a savin 8025 e and might be able to pull that one..
    as i remember they were laptop IDE drives.
    I dont remember what the connector looks like.
    thanks

    Hey Andy, I just had a look at my old Service manuals, and was reminded that the AF2027, etc. had the controller board that you had to access from the rear of the machine whereas MP2510 (Savin 8025), etc. had the controller that slides out the side so the brackets and connectors are a bit different, but the older AF2027 just used a short IDE cable without the need for the additional ac power connector, so knowing you, you can probably rig up something to hold the HDD in place well enough, and I'd expect the IDE connector from the 8025 to work ok.
    Oh, and yes, they're 2.5" drives. (I think the 2027 was a measly 40Gb)
    Hope that helps.

          Nah, unfortunately nothing coming up, but next week home to Nova Scotia for a break, and lots of golf.
          I heard about Bruce being at that show. That would have been amazing! Sorry about your wife. I hope everything's ok.
