Hacker Replaces iPod HDD With Flash Memory
Via a Wired Blog, an anonymous reader wrote with a link to a post on the Geek Technique website. There, post author Mark Hoekstra details how to replace an iPod's HDD with flash memory. It's not an inexpensive procedure, as 16 Gigs of flash memory is still a mite expensive, and the post is not a 'how-to'. Just the same, the project took painstaking work and is well worth recognizing. "I guess I can say I found ways of eliminating almost every hard drive out of almost every hard drive based iPod thereby eliminating all moving parts. The only one left is the iPod video which would only need a slightly different adapter. But next to that I've got a gut feeling that one's being upgraded to flash memory by Apple themselves any time soon."
I am overwhelmed by the urge to teabag you.
Software piracy is victimless theft.
why would you buy an ipod video - their fucking crap. tiny screen anyone? no wide screen? buy yourself a pda with n extra battery and a mobile hdd, it'll cost a shit load less and be 10x better.
If you mod me down, I will become more powerful than you can imagine....
