I am currently trying to identify several electronic connectors so I can
purchase the appropriate mates. Several of these connectors have proven to
be very difficult to identify. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I
might approach this?

Large electronics catalogs.
Connector makers websites.
Look for a logo on the connector, and see if you can track it down.
A description here might be an alternative.

You can post pictures of the parts on
news:alt.binaries.schematics.electronic by attaching it as a GIF, JPEG,
or other common image file. That way, someone can see them, and
hopefully tell you who makes them.

I have gone through several large electronics catalogs – Allied, Newark,
Digi-key and searched the web sites of Amp/Tyco, 3M, and Foxconn. There are
no logos on the connectors as far as I can tell. I examined them very
carefully.
All of these connectors are attached to laptop hard drives (generally 5400
RPM) and provide the interconnect from the hard drives to the laptop
computers. I believe they are IDE interfaces with power included in the
same connector, but I could be wrong here.
I did identify the mate of one connector. It is a "Note Module" with 2.00
mm pitch made by Foxconn. The part number is HH99227-T9. It is part of
their "Device Interface" product family.
I can provide photos to anyone interested. Simply contact me if you wish to
receive some photos.

Thanks for the suggestion! I was hoping to find such a web site.
I will do so later today.

I just posted descriptions and a few scans (of small file size) to
alt.binaries.schematics.electronic of two mating connectors. I am hoping
someone will recognize these.

Maybe http://www.samtec.com has them.
