Try shim stock or a feeler gauge between the plug and socket to work the latching fingers. This isn't something that I've tried specifically in this case. You might need to put a notch in the stock or feeler gauge so that you can work the fingers from the backside. Kinda like that old trick of using a credit card to prise a door latch, except this should work since there's no deadlatch. :) You might also try gently twisting a small screwdriver or spudger stick between the plug and socket too to increase the gap between the socket and plug. -joe From: NANOG <nanog-bounces+joe.klein=mischoice.com () nanog org> On Behalf Of Ryland Kremeier Sent: Friday, April 23, 2021 09:31 To: nanog () nanog org Subject: Broken Mini-SAS cable removal?
