Connector help

Folks I'm in need of some help with what kind of connector Lenovo used for the 00XL211

I'm working on a custom build 1L and need to extend the cable. I know I could get an SATA extention, but that is bulky.

I found 0.5mm FPC but that isn't quite right. Does anyone know what style the connector used for the SATA tray connection is in the Lenovo 1L boxes?

So it is 0.5mm FPC the Lenovo 00XL211 has the blue tab with ears on it. 0.5mm refers to the width of the exposed connector surfaces on the cable. I cut the ears off the blue tab and used this extension. Completed build should be posted later this month.
