iRiver H120 CF Mod Attempt - Success!
LambdaCalculus:
Hi davidc, that adapter you linked to won't work on the H120. But it will work on some other DAPs, like the H10, Dell DJ, and Rio Karma.
Since the H120 has a vertically-oriented Toshiba hard drive, you need an adapter that fits that form factor. Some of the guys here may be able to point a good one out to you.
But thanks for that link; I'll be purchasing a couple for my Dell DJ and Rio Karma. ;)

So long as the width of the card and CF do not exceed the width of the player
that card should work. I might be wrong but on a Gigabeat the card might have
to mount upside down (flash side facing inside the player) since IIRC the #1
pin side of the HDD connector on the card is backwards from what's in the player.
This card mounts the CF sideways in the player instead of in the same axis as the original HD.
E-GAD they also have a zif format hdd/cf flash adapter! That would work in the
newest ipods! Price looks a bit higher than on ebay, if my Euro to $$ translation
is right.

I put a 32GB CF from A-Data in my 2nd Gen IPod Mini a week ago:

I upgraded to a 850mah battery that I bought off of eBay (hopefully it's 850mah). I did a battery benchmark with a playlist of 50+ 192VBR MP3s and got 18hrs of playback time.

I'm going to try that out for my girlfriend's h120. I'm still looking for a source to ship a 32GB cf card to Canada.
Although I may bite the bullet and get a 16GB for now, only $60 at a local shop www.canadacomputers.com

Did you recompile rockbox with the patch to ata.c to remove the reset?

That looks exactly like the one I got off ebay for twice the price. Guess this particular card has become an off the shelf item. Nice!
