Re: upgrading hard drive in Ipod video 60GB

For what it's worth, my ipod harddrive recently died, and was characterized
by extreme mechanical noise coming from the unit itself - clicking and
screeching. I'm attempting to replace the disk (5.0g 60gb) with an mk1224gah
and will report back. I have suspicions that some 'large physical sector'
disks may not work in 5.0g ipods.

"Does the sound come through your headphones or from something physical
inside the iPod? If through the headphones I agree with Glenn Ervin that you
should checkthe disk for errors." It's the headphones. I did run "check
errors" and defrag. I played it for a few minutes and it seems to be ok.
However, I really won't know until I use it in the car through the headphone
jack in the stereo since this is where it get's the most use. I really
appreciate all the suggestions.
