Well it seems I often end up answering my own questions. I searched obsessively and found
that archive.org Waybackmachine had archived the now gone 123macmini.com Forum.
It actually has holes in the archive. much is missing but the Thread by OP geeji can still be accessed
and on page 5 is the Modification to the Sata Connector Ribbon Pictured. Thank the Internet Gods!

P.S.
There is a way to Modify that without cutting removing or otherwise damaging that cable at all.
I had some Film like Tape that is more rigid than black tape & cut a mm sliver that I placed in the
connector over the pin to be blanked out. Basically Insulating it from making Connection.
The Beauty of that is Nothing Invasive is done to any of the parts and can be easily removed if so
desired leaving the Factory Sata Optical Cable, Drive, Etc. Unmutilated!
