Default Rewire Laptop FDD as Replacement for Defective External FDD?

Hi,

One of my old Gateway laptops (WinXP) uses an external (NOT USB
connected) FDD (could not find replacement) that is defective.

I have some good laptop FDDs, but different brand (from Thinkpad, etc.).

Is it possible for me (I was once a service tech, TVs, VCRs, etc) to
rewire the connector to use this other brand FDD?

Thank You in advance, John
