More photos in the comments. Is it supposed to be connected to the motherboard? I found it in the case. It wasn’t connected. I think that the backside is some sort of thermal patch. I can tell that it’s not a camera but I’m very confused and the connection reminds me of more of a laptop or phone connection not something you would see in a PC. The data matrix contains the same text as the white sticker.

    That is a six-pin flex PCB connector. Nothing more. Nothing less.

    What did it connect? Dunno. It could connect any number of things that needed six pins for communication.

    My wild guess: A floppy drive motor.
