Possible ZIF to 1.8" IDE adapter! 100GB iriver H140?
Flowah:
Can you post pictures of your modifications? I had been wondering if this was possible to do on the H120, and would like to see exactly how you did it. Also, which adapter did you use?
isanggon:
I didn't made picture when I upgrade my h120. I attached horrible draw that made just ago.
I think this adaptor is the best choice and with this adaptor there need no modifications. but this is too expensive to pay.

I used this adaptor.

This is very cheap and works fine. but too big for iriver. so needed modifications. There will be many modifications. I modified like attached drawings.
Flowah:
Hmm, I think I understand your picture. And you say that the adapter you linked would fit better?

What exactly are the size specs, do you know? I think I can make out that it's about 30mm in length, 46mm in width, 2.54mm in height.
isanggon:
Umm.. I measured my adapter and estimated es&s adapter's size. Result picture is attached.
And I changed my opinion.
http://www.ak-data.de/grelle-shop-x/index2.htm will perfectly fit on h120, when remove bottom rubber. without remove bottom rubber, that adapter will not fit without modification, either(but more easily than other adapter).
I think, the bottom rubber should be there. So if you use zip hdd, you'll need to modification to use that.

Has anyone tried this mod on a H320? I'm considering trying it with a 5mm thick samsung Spinpoint N2 series drive: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/products/downloads/HS10TJB.pdf which are 7.5mm shorter than the factory iriver toshiba drives. I already have a larger 2400mah battery which took some dremeling to get to fit right (I still have the blue rubber and all), so I'm very worried about getting the deal extreme adapter + 5mm HD + 2400mah battery to fit. If all else fails, I'm willing to try this: http://www.stolltech.ch/iriver.pdf
