I had bad luck with iPod hard drives... I’m surprised you’re is still working, or was there an SSD video iPod that I’m forgetting?

- amiga-workbench 7y agoYou can easily retrofit flash memory into at least some of the older iPods.
- ben1040 7y agoI assume by “souped up” they mean they modded it. You can go onto Amazon and get adapters to retrofit HDD-based iPods with flash, and a replacement battery too as long as you’re cracking it open. I did this with an old 5G video iPod and it was a 15 minute job. Worked better than new because there wasn’t the lag in switching songs from waiting for the HDD to spin up.
- stevewillows 7y agoyeah, the 5.5 is the best. Such an easy mod, too. Combined with Rockbox and it's a near-perfect media player.
- stevewillows 7y agoyup! You I replaced it with an iFlash Quad [1] -- it takes up to four micro SDs. I also replaced the battery with a 2000mAh and keep it all in the 30gb case. I also replaced the headphone jack and lock switch so they were black. Modding iPods is a breeze, too. Just be gentle when you're disconnecting the battery.
