FFC Slim Line Cable

[disabled]

Hi everyone,
Where can I get one of these FFC Slim Line cables, they are used for a laptop Floppy disc drive, also where can I get the floppy drive that will work with the cable?

The cable looks like this over here:

Actually I'm also confused about this issue, overseas they refer them as floppies which over here we call them stiffies, they actually take a 1.44 stiffy disc. So I would say that we could safetly say it's a stiffy

"In some places, especially South Africa and Zimbabwe, 3½-inch floppy disks have commonly been called stiffies or stiffy disks, because of their "stiff" (rigid) cases, which are contrasted with the flexible "floppy" cases of 5¼-inch floppies. In Finnish, the term is korppu (rusk, crumpet, biscuit) due to its rigidity compared to 5¼-inch lerppu (floppy)."
