I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have lost the cable, I didn't get one. The Pinebook came 1/13/2020 and within a few days I ordered a USB/eMMC adapter which came in a month or so. I hadn't thought I'd get an SSD, then I read up and looked around and found I could get a 1 TB Intel for $125 which sounded reasonable so I bought one and ordered the NVMe adapter from the Pine Store. Which is a board that goes between the SSD and the cable. Came in a little anti-static bag and in another little bag were 2 screws and 2 washers. No cable. My Pinebook came with no cable plugged into the CPU board for the SSD and I didn't get a 1st generation adapter.
The connector on the board looks like a reasonably standard IDC connector where you squeeze it closed and contacts pierce the insulation on a cable. Except the picture in the wiki shows flex-board cable which is copper foil on a plastic backing, not wires. The connector on the adapter I don't recognize at all.
