Title: Ipod crazy idea
Post by: andrew_O_O on September 09, 2007, 02:51:01 PM
hmmm.....my ipod video has 30gb....

it uses this kind of harddrive....

would it be possible to replace the harddrive with the new 80gb harddrive found in the new ipod classic since 80gb classic is more or less same thickness as the 30gb video?

here's a pic of the 80gb harddrive from the new ipod classic..

^^^ Hmmm, I think yung naka-lagay sa caution na "Do not disassemble, mdify or repair" seals the deal for me.

Pero, malay mo, magagaling ang Pinoy eh. Balitaan mo ako ha? Bibili din kasi ako ng 30gig na iPod eh :-D :-D :-D

and what will you do when you open your ipod and find out that the drive won't fit, and you can't assemble it again, i wonder?  :-)

hey guys may nabasa ako tungkol sa mga ganito

http://www.command-tab.com/2007/03/11/upgrading-ipod-hard-drives/

and i think its possible to upgrade video 30gb using classic's 80gb HD assuming na 5mm rin yung HD ng 80gb classic...ZIF connection gamit nila so compatible ata... hehe but i still have to wait for people to start selling 80gb toshiba mk8022gaa replacement harddrives

sa tingin ko pwede basta same size.

kasi marami ngang hidden features ang mga ipods eh.. kapag tinignan firmware, maraming mahuuhkay na pwedeng magawa ng ipod.

my point is, ipods' parts are meant to be updated. so the motherboards of ipods could handle harddisks with larger capacities

Pwede yan I think.. nagbabaklas din ako ng iPOD.. siguro kailangan mo humanap ng mas makapal na backplate (to accommodate the hard drive) and new battery na rin para sulit..

i dont think kelangan na palitan backplate since kasintaba ata yung mga harddrives..

ipod video 30gb harddrive = 5mm
ipod CLASSIC (yung bago) 80gb harddrive = 5mm

pwede basta same yung dimension ng HD, napanood ko sa techTV dati nag disassemble sila ng 20GB ipod pinalitan nila ng 40  :-D, kaso kailangan mo yata tungkabin yung gilid ng ipod hindi kasi yata siya di screw kaya that would definitely leave a mark.
