MB Air first gen (2008) HD in iPod classic

[Mr_Brightside_@]

I have a MacBook Air that I'm working on for a friend. It can't boot to the desktop, though the HDD is not full and I've verified the disk in recovery mode.

Before erasing the drive, I'm curious if I can a) move its HDD into my 80GB iPod classic and b) possibly attempt accessing its data via the iPod if so.

Any clues on if this will work? Should I turn on disk mode on the iPod prior?

It should work. Start the iPod up in disk mode and you'll be able to access the Air's data.

Cool, thanks for the response!
