After a few minutes iTunes opened a window with “The iPod “iPod” could not be restored. While going through the restore process the iPod displayed a small cirlce-slash with “Do Not Disconnect” underneath. The 5th Gen iPod connected with iTunes, then iTunes attempted to restore it. Tonight I installed the iFlash into a 5th Gen that I already installed an iFlash unit in, a 2015 manufacture model. I replaced the HDD cable on my 6th Gen to see if that made a difference with the same results functions with the original HDD perfectly, same ,problem as below with the iFlash.
IPOD CLASSIC IFLASH QUAD UPDATE
Very late update to my previous post below (29 March), no idea why I didn’t think of this before. (All photographs courtesy of Rob Hardwick©, used with permission) I’d like to thank Rob Hardwick and Greg Upton for putting their Classic’s forward for testing!!! Various testing has demonstrated so far that if the CF card works with the iFlash in a iPod Video (5g) then it will probably work in the iPod Classic (6g). Thankfully the pricing is getting very attractive with the 32Gb A-Data approaching $100 (£50), and the other makes following suite. If you exclude the vaporware announced by Pretec and Microdia – 32Gb is still the maximum you can buy in the shops.

The iPod works so much better with solid state storage, the cover flow album art feature is smoother with no waiting for the hard drive to spin up – plus the benefit of having another 30-40% of battery life added to the already excellent run times is just great.īad news obviously is that CF cards have not climbed in capacity as hoped for. Not worth mentioning the 160Gb model here as that has plenty of room any way…. Physically the fit is perfect – the iFlash mk2 with its slimmer design is just the right thickness to go in to the slimmer design of the Classic (80gb model). If you are reading this looking at your recently deceased iPod Classic which you dropped and broke the hard drive on, well I have some good news the iFlash works and works very well.

Oh, also windows device-manager or disk-manager can sometimes 'see' a more complete disk capacity than explorer does.For the last few months I and a few iFlash users have been playing around with Apple’s new incarnation of the iPod – the 6g Classic, with its fancy new operating system and slimmer profile – we wanted to see if the iFlash would work and if Apple still left the back door open for the Compact Flash conversion of their headline media player.
Wouldn't surprise me if there were a limit with the Tarkan adaptor.

Would be sort-of-usable, except you'd be stuck syncing with rockbox, with all the disk error problems that involves, so until they fix rockbox's ata driver that wouldn't be a real solution.

I was wondering if there was any upper limit due to the hardware (as I've reached about 1.5Tb myself).ĭoes it show the full capacity if you don't restore the ipod the normal iTunes way but just format it from within windows? That's not a usable solution, obviously, though if it worked to that extent, you might be able to install rockbox (perhaps using the old emcore method?), which might give a clue as to what might be going on. That's very interesting to know (crikey, four 1Tb cards must cost a humungous amount! I suspect you are the first to try this). You might be better off going for one of Tarkan's made-for-ipod iFlash adapters If 1 and 2 check out ok then there's a fault or compatibility problem with the adapters. Test both with and without the SD-CF adapter.ģ. Double-check capacity of SD card in a card reader. I've seen that with original drives and bad ribbon cables.ġ. The fact you get gibberish in the ipod's diagnostics page points to some sort of communication problem. Those cheap CF-ZIF adapters can be tricky to get the ribbon cable attached properly - the cable can go too far in and miss the contacts. For info, I have a Qumox microSD to CF adapter but it does not work in an ipod but works ok in a card reader. I have a several CF-SD adapters that look similar to yours (Googling the description) and have used them ok with SDXC cards. I suspect it's either the CF-SD adapter or the CF-ZIF adapter (or both!).
