Those colors are standard color codes used in electronic markings. The colors mean:

1 = brown
2 = red
3 = orange
4 = yellow
5 = green
6 = blue
7 = violet
8 = gray
9 = white
0 = black

The most important thing when repairing or replacing that ribbon is that pin one of each connector goes to the correct wire. The connectors can be crimped on right side up, upside down, or rotated left to right. Any of those can cause the wrong wires to go to the wrong pin on the other end. So it's critical that he pay attention to how the current connectors are attached to the wire, and in what orientation.

You should be able to go to Target, Wallymart, RadioHut .. all you need is a computer ribbon cable and count off 10 wires and cut off the rest.

every PC hard drive uses one... except Mac/Apple
