yeh, i knew thatnot only that, u need one that has the ZIF flat cable.
for obvious reasons of course. speed increase turning on/loading songs/seeking, added battery life, overall snappiness etc.seriously why would you do that? i mean the ipod OS does not need it at all....
Is there any chance that the iPod classic will get 128 GB flash memory sometime before the next iPod media event or at the next iPod media event?
I would say the chances of that happening are zero. The soonest I could see apple using ssd in place of hdd (note if they even do at all) would be in 3 or so years when the prices aren't insane. But by then the ipod nano and ipod touch should have options for storage in the classics range right now.
You guys are tempting me to get this done on my 160 6G.. Are there any 160GB SSDs or even larger that would fit it?
Sorry, didn't get that. Isn't fat what ? It's the 2008 model (double-platter) I think some call it the fattyo or whatever. What are the other advantages of having an SSD besides speed? I heard battery life is also better but is it true they die "faster" when they are full ?
Well I'm very tempted to be honest. I love my classic, I love its battery life and Apple current policies aren't hinting at an large SSD Classic anytime soon. So, if I still "throw" the money I won't get "just" 160GB. I'd hit the 256 SSD. I'm a total n00b when it comes to this kind of mods but I know some pro guys.
Do you think a Samsung 1.8" 256SSD will work? And what's the difference between microSATA and uSata ? In fact, which one would you recommend for my 6G ?
Before this one I had the 5G and my 6G is slimmer than that one. I presume you'd say "get a slimmer or get the 5G" because the 6th would be thicker, right? I had a little topic over here in order to identify what generation mine really is. The cover box is of the 7G, but it has the laggy GUI and I hear the HDD spinning/making noises almost all the time so I am pretty sure it would be the 6G.
Would there be a significant difference in terms of battery life ?
I want to know is there any ssd working on iPhone.
