I have here a perfectly good SCSI device I'd like to use, it's just that
the +12V pin in the power connector has broken off. Can I just solder another
pin right on the trace on the PCB, or is there some sealer over the traces?
(Or anything else I should know about?)
Aside from Bruce's comments, I would add that you need to make sure there is
no stress placed on the trace after soldering. The bond strength of the
copper to the laminate is not very great, and it is quite possible to pull
the trace off.
