Superpower for my iPod 7th gen

I just love this adapter. I had gotten hold of an old 7th gen iPod 160GB, but sadly (or luckily? :)) the hard drive died a week after I got it. I didn't want to let this wonderful piece of iPod machinery go to waste, so I decided to order the iFlash adapter to bring it back to life. And wow did I come back to life! It's faster, lighter, less noisy and the battery lasts longer than when I had the hard drive. Oh, and it houses more music with it's new and shiny 256GB flash card inside. It was easy to install also, the biggest job was to pop open the iPod without too much damage to the edges. Absolutely worth the money.

I would recommend this product to a friend!

Excellent HD

I bought a used iPod Classic 5th Generation 80gb (2008) as a music transport for my new car's audio system (via USB from the iPod to the car- an Acura TLX). I loaded it up with 60gb of large music files (AIFF) and found that sometimes playback would hiccup slightly and that scrolling the files using the car's music finder would lock things up until the system could catch up to itself. So I ordered an iFlash and put a SanDisc 128gb SDXC UHS-1 Class 10 card into it. Using the pry tools I popped the case, undid the battery cable (I replaced the battery as well), removed the old HD, hooked up the new one, reattached the battery cable, closed it up and was done in no more than 15 minutes. This included changing out the battery. The ONLY issue I had was getting the connector ribbon to seat correctly in the slot on the iFlash. That took a few tries. I watched the video of that part several times to be sure I was doing it correctly. After that, I hooked it up to my Mac/iTunes and turned it on (it automatically goes into Recovery mode). I let it go through the process of downloading and installing the latest firmware, and then let it install my music files. That whole process took maybe 65-70 minutes (for about 60gb of music). Then I set up the iPod using Settings and everything was good to go. Using the scroll wheel, I scrolled through my music library and it just flew though it. Much faster than with the stock HD. I then plugged it into the USB cord in my car and used the car's system to scroll through the music files. No lag, no lockup. Music played perfectly. This is only the first day I have used this product, so I can't speak to durability, but performance is very good and the build quality seems good as well. If you've got an old Classic and want to make it either work or make it work better, this is a good way to do it.

1st time and it worked!

Replaced a failed hard drive om my 5 th gen Ipod Classic 80gb. I had never opened or repaired an ipod b4 but watched the video and followed the directions and 1 hour later my ipod is back with a 128gb hard drive and Sync's faster than it ever did. Thanks for a great Product and Video that I could understand and follow along with ease. Thanks Bill B
