Using a machine with a msata port right on the system board, (For me, this was an HP Elite 800 All-in-One machine). Here’s what I had to do to get my 1TB iPod classic to function properly.ġ.
IFLASH DUAL USB TRIAL
fightoverflight 17, March 2015 at 12:22 amĪfter many weeks of fine tuning, frustration, and trial and error, I finally have my iPod up and running.It just worked the first time with no fuss. If I manually manage my library like I do now do I even need the dual cable? The 256gb sdxc went so smooth and easy I figured I had to have missed a problem happening somewhere but there wasn’t any. Has anyone tried the 850 EVO as they cost less than the 840 EVO? Also, where the heck do you get an Apple dual firewire/USB cable and AC box for a decent price? Amazon doesn’t have one in stock and the only one on eBay is $99! The other option is an old ipod for $55 that comes with it or purchasing the cable and power adapter separately for about the same price but without the old ipod. I am thinking of doing a 500gb msata using a Samsung drive and a 5.5 gen 80gb iPod but it seems the info I found here was with the 840 EVO. I misjudged how large my collection was going to be in lossless verses my previous 320k mp3 format and am running out of room already. I have a PNY 256gb sdxc version using Tarkan’s new adapter on a 5th gen 60gb iPod and it works great. Would really appreciate some help as this was all going so well & I was going to build some more 1TB iPods for friends / colleagues ! Would a bigger battery help ? Any links to suitable ones ?ĭo I need to remove the disk & re-format it separately ? What kind of adaptor (to USB) would I need ? Can’t get it to stay connected to my PC long enough for a format, and it won’t restart normally. After stopping / ejecting / waiting, the sad face of death again. Once, it actually started up – the 1TB disk was recognised, iTunes sprang into life & it started syncing. The only way to recover it is to disconnect everything, disconnect the battery, and then start from scratch. Whenever I get it into disk mode and connect it to my PC I try to re-format using guiformat, but the iPod drops off the USB bus. Took it out to use it again & had the dreaded “sad-face” screen. I left the iPod running on random play overnight, connected to the power, and it was fine – and resynced the next day. I have the firewire / split charging & usb cable, and I loaded >8000 lossless tracks, totalling >700GB. However, I’ve also converted an 80GB classic MA450FD to 1TB (Samsung 840EVO) & am having continual problems.įirst attempt resulted in an iTunes restore, and all was well.
IFLASH DUAL USB FULL
I’ve successfully built a 500GB (Samsung 840EVO) ipod using a 30GB classic, it’s almost full & I’m using it every day – so many thanks & kudos to creating & producing the iFlash-sata !
