polluxx2006:
hi folks,

im currently thinking of replacing my 40GB hd
in my iriver h140 with an 80GB hd. can anybody tell
me what models are suitable or what i have to be aware of
when choosing such a drive?

at the moment i can get a toshiba mk8010gah - does this work with the iriver h140?

cheers

LambdaCalculus:
Look for an MK8007GAH drive instead; it has the proper 50-pin connector and will fit perfectly inside the case.

The MK8010GAH has a ZIF connector, so without a ZIF-ATA adaptor, you can't just drop it into the iriver.

Would be cheaper to to get the mk8009GAH and an adapter.

$400 DOLLARS?? Madness, I say!

Good luck finding an adapter.  :(
Span.com told me via email that no one is producing them. You have to make one yourself. If this fact changes and someone does commercially produce a ZIF to 50 pin (female) adapter please post a link!  :)
