Hey all,

Question: there is a random cable just hanging out near where my SSD is seated in the MPC X....it's not the fatter cable that IS connected, it is the smaller in size, black cable with the little Gold circular connector on it.....it's just there....I didn't move it or anything (l just discovered it while installing a new ssd) - just would like to know what the hell it is and why / where it goes to? Thanks in adv. for the help....

Oh Snap...That is suppose to be connected to one of the Circuit Boards. I believe its the WiFi/Bluetooth Antenna connector

Solved....it Was indeed the wifi / BT cable...it connects right by the opening for the SSD drive (not visible from looking at it upside down...) - snaps right back on. All is good. Thanks again.

If you have ever peeked inside a laptop, it’s the same type / looking wire with a little copper coupling on the end. In the laptop it’s connected to the wifi module/card..

Oooooo - cool - thanks for the tip! I wonder if the WiFi/BT cable is in a similar area on the Live 2?
