Date: Tue, 25 May 2004 11:21:50 +0100 Incidentally, has anyone ever sucessfully run any 5400rpm drive in a JBR? I only ask because there will come a day when 4200rpm drives are no longer available, and thanks to RockBox we will all still be using our jukeboxes because nothing else compares.

AFAIK I don't have a HDD password enabled, but I don't know much about it so it will be a good excuse to learn.

There is a HDD un-passwording tool on the Rockbox homepage I have no idea whether it would help or not, but if you're about to bin it, it's gotta be worth a shot?
