Considering my I would buy at least 4 (in addition to the one in the KOP), yes.

Standard 0.1"/2.54mm spacing. Also, the part number for the breakout connector mate is
On-Shore Tech SH4-34G-RP or SH2-34G-P. I think the connector they are using on the RIO Itself is On-Shore Tech 302-S341.
I recommend using the MXP port, if possible, as your adapter for this. For those of us who remember 3.5" floppies, it looks to be the same keyed connector, so if we can source 34-pin ribbon cables....
