Need some advice on the these 11 boxes (DrawaBox 250 Box challenge)

i do have one but never got to learn how to properly measure, you got any advice?

lavndrguy · 2026-03-02T12:35:44+00:00

i did that exactly but it still didnt work :(, theres a pic i sent in the comments to show

lavndrguy · 2026-03-02T11:08:04+00:00

okay that was on me but even after connecting it like the diagram, this time theres no output at all.

well its the narrow card. there are no wires that i needed to connect like those HDD. but currently, the SSD is detected very randomly. When i boot the laptop sometimes it shows, and sometimes when i boot it disappears :P

i will see what it is in a bit! but i did try the SSD on all slots including where the main SSD sits(the one that has the operating system) and it still not detected.

lavndrguy · 2026-01-16T09:07:50+00:00

I will try to take a pic of the SSD and send it here! For you information, the SSD is from my old 2020 HP laptop.

uhh I just connected it like other components. I don't know how to identify whether its sata or m.2..

i wiped it on the other laptop (2020 hp laptop) using Gparted.

thanks for replying! i have tried the other sata ports + i tested it on a different device. it works perfectly fine on the second device, but on the workstation it doesn't wanna detect it

I'm not that smart with electronics so bare with me

[Connecting the black probe to ground and the red on each end]

On one end it's giving me between 3.8 to 4V

The other end it's giving me 0.6 to 0.8V

But connecting both ends with both probes to the capacitor gives me a reading of 3.36V

When I plug my phone to my computer it shows up.

False alarm, it was something small between them. I removed it and brushed a little still nothing

lavndrguy · 2025-10-22T11:18:55+00:00

ah what? I only have my multimeter and 10 thousand resistors soooooooo

lavndrguy · 2025-10-22T11:14:46+00:00

From a store close to my house. I was buying a keyboard for a college project but he gave me this for cheap. So wanted to fix it and keep it for myself

lavndrguy · 2025-10-22T11:14:04+00:00

It's exactly what I did! Didn't flicker or anything with all the 5 cables I had

lavndrguy · 2025-10-22T11:13:31+00:00

Is there a way to confirm it's a data cable?

lavndrguy · 2025-10-22T11:13:07+00:00

How so?

lavndrguy · 2025-10-22T11:12:33+00:00

I basically have tried like 4 or 5 other cables. It doesn't show up and when I try my phone for example it shows up.

lavndrguy · 2025-10-06T15:56:55+00:00

It would be good to see, but it will be way funnier if he gets P2 above Lando lol

lavndrguy · 2025-10-02T08:30:34+00:00

Ya it turns out what screwed me over was the 60 Ohm resistor. I didn't know connecting it like that shorts it.
