I am in need of 4 cables longer than the 18” ribbon cables that come with the controller. I am looking for 24” cables to reach into a new Lian Li PC-V1200 case. I really want this case but it will not work unless I can acquire 24” cables.
Can I use standard IDE cables and can I use a cable that has 3 ends instead of 2 for each of the 4 cables?

I have found out that normal ATA/100 cables will work with the Adaptec card. The only question I now have is if a 3 end cable will work with it. I have not found any 24” 2 end cables.
 
Mods can delete this thread if they want to. I just took a good course on ATA cable lengths and it is not advised at all to extend the length over 18”.
