Default Small Molex Connectors/Pins

Ok, this one's holding me up here.

I need the part numbers or the names of the small molex connectors (the one's for floppy drives) and for the pins which reside within. Trying to search the Molex site is a little frustrating to say the least.

If anybody happens to have discovered this info before, I'd really appreciate a hookup

Once I get these and my sleeving, I can finish off this case and actually post a modded case for once!

Y'know what, I found some 4-pin headers and connectors here, if I clip off the polarity nubs, I can use these... (uses standard fan plug pins)

Now at least I know what they're called, even if I can't order any LOL

I would just harvest on off an old PSU. Hate to order online and pay shipping for a $0.10 part!

uhm, personally I just cannibalize whatever I need off dead parts.

A dead floppy would have the PCB connector for the Berg connector. And as Putwig said, pull a berg connector off a PSU.

I got a free 8 mhz processor off a old dead HP, imagine that , Printer. And parts for a power supply off the same printer.

That'd work, but I need the wires to be uh, slim, no room here for extending wires if they're too short... And the only salvageable Berg's (see, isn't it nice how that rolls off the tongue...) I have here are 20 AWG, and I need 22 or thinner...

I'd just buy the little crimp pins, so I can rewire 'em, but there's probably only 2 guys in purchasing at some major supply house who have even the faintest idea what part number they are...

I'll just modify these connectors (I did in fact order them from AllElectronics a looooong time ago as it happens)...

FYI I found a source for the little crimp pins you find in fan molex connectors (I hope it's right) I'll confirm once they arrive if anybody is interested...

EDIT: Thanks for the help guys! And for the offer Zenn...
