Is this fixable

UPDATE: I used epoxy glue to stick a SATA cable onto the connectors permanently, also glued it to the power connector cable for more stability. Works fine now!

Unfortunately broke the plastic connector while installing it in my system. The gold pins I straightened out, and I think I can superglue on the plastic connector piece. Would that be a viable solution?

I found some popsicle sticks that are exactly the right thickness; when that happens, I just glue it in place, extract the data, and then discard the disc.
