really gutted its a new shuttle pc (integrated montherboard and case) pulled the sata cable out and the connector came off the motherboard with it, bending the pins as well.. really gutted and wonder if anyone has experience of this, as not sure what to do. i guess i could RMA the shuttle, but that's my main pc and i would have to remove everything including the psu i replaced.
 
if the pins have only been bent and not broken off then you should be able to push it back on again. It is quite hard to align the pins properly again though so you will likely need to take it completely apart to do it.
 
OK i will post a pic up this afternoon. i only have 4 sata ports so keeping them active would be useful. i had this shuttle shipped in from Germany as well. :(

i will get a pic up around 4pm if anyone could advise that would be great.
