The flash could start to fail, but in that case capacity would start to slowly diminish over time instead of all failing at once. - Chris Heinonen Thu, 01 Oct 2009 10:56:04 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-2228 Sorry, no idea on how to replace the hard drive in the touch as I do not have one to work on. As for the MK1011GAH - I have not looked around for this drive in a long time, so I have no idea where is the cheapest. I would check the usuall suspects (google, ebay, etc). Good luck. - Jared Rachwalski Thu, 01 Oct 2009 04:49:23 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-2220 i was looking at the mk1011gah toshiba hard drive for my 80 gb ipod classic. where is the cheapest place to get that? - alexis Tue, 29 Sep 2009 09:21:38 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-1863 is it the same for the ipod touch - eugene Mon, 18 May 2009 22:00:14 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-1540 Thanks to this article I was able to replace the HD in my 4th Gen IPod. I just used the same Toshiba 20G which I got off Amazon for $28 plus shipping. The hardest part was getting the case open. I just used a very small screwdriver since the case is all scratched up anyway. After I got the HD to format I kept getting error messages which I assume is because the Ipod is so old, but after reformatting it a couple of times I got it to work. Hopefully, it will continue to function, but for $28 and some time, it was well worth the effort. - Michael Sun, 15 Feb 2009 06:51:16 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-917 I accidentally pulled the drive connector completely out of the ipod and I'm not too sure how to go about putting it back in. - SMC1023 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 15:20:16 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-266 Soon you should be able to get 160 . As long as it has the ZIF connector and fits inside the case it should work. - JRach Tue, 26 Feb 2008 18:47:20 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/technical-articles/274-a-secrets-technical-article.html#comment-209 Is it possible to get even bigger hard drives, e.g. 160 Gb??
