I have Googled for an IDE extension cable for 2.5 inch hard drive (used
in laptops), but I did not find a source.

The trick is to search using Google Images, not to sift through the
web text search. Like this:
https://www.google.com/search?q=laptop+ide+M-F+cable+-sata&tbm=isch
Note that I've excluded SATA from the search. Then, just look through
the images for something close.

Most important, the extension cable must have a male connector on
one end, and female on the other.

Does anyone know a source?
