Changing 30GB to 60GB help!

Read49 · 06-05-2008

My iPod is getting full, so I think I need to get a 60GB iPod. I have a 30GB iPod Video 5. The question is, can I take my 30GB harddrive out my iPod and put in a 60GB harddrive?

I guess you can if you know how to. But I do know that you can change a 4GB 2G Nano to an 8GB one coz the nano has a flash drive. But I'm still not sure abvout this. The kind of hard disk used in the iPods are quite different from normal you know.

yes u can change the harddisk the only problem is that you will need a new backplate because the 60 gb hard drive is thicker

Why Would You Want To Spend $180 On A iPod HDD? I Only Spend $100 On My 80gb Video On Ebay. And $50 For A Backplate? REDICULOUS Ebay FTW

$8 Backplate http://cgi.ebay.com/New-iPod-Video-6...QQcmdZViewItem

$49 Brand New HDD http://cgi.ebay.com/IPOD-VIDEO-60-GB...QQcmdZViewItem

+Rep? I Think Thats A Way Better Price Than Those Other People Were Gonna Charge.

I don't think you can get 160GB HD for iPod Video.
