Can you guys showing me the socket I can get for solder on PCB?

I want to use it with CPS 3 CD ROM cable, want a socket if possible from AliExpress.Which pay do you need a socket for?
Thanks guys. I went ahead and ordered a V1 as I was able to order a kit for £30 delivered.
The other thing is can anyone tell me what I would need to name the ISO file?

I did some digging around with the V2 files and etc.V1 works fine on CPS3 with the new firmware. V2 is probably going to be easier to get if it’s using a Pi Pico
/me sligs 60 dollars to hatmooseI did some digging around with the V2 files and etc.
These are super easy to manufacture from JLCPCB, the gerbers, part list and pick/place files are all pre populated and JLC will make them for you for not too much money - then just need to solder the 50 pin SCSI connector, the Pi Pico, and the 4 pin power. Do recommend this.
These are nearly impossible to manufacture at home, there is a whole mountain of 0402 SMD components which are fiddly AF, and one of the voltage regulators is a weird value (2.85? really?) which is out of stock at both Digi and Mouser. Do not recommend this.
The $US52 price tag that these seem to go for fully assembled seems reasonable.

Ya... Most of the success of V1 was how simple it was to assemble at home, we wanted to keep as much of the assemble it yourself as we could. The reason the desktop uses 0402 is to share parts with the DB25(which we hope to make even smaller) and Powerbook/laptop version. The KiCad source files are provided under a creative commons non-commerical, so if you wanted to modify it to fit your needs you could. We also provide all the manufacturing files as you mention for JLCPCB, which makes the process pretty simple to get 5 or 10. We sell PCB's about at cost if you want just 1 or 2.These are nearly impossible to manufacture at home
