Possible ZIF to 1.8" IDE adapter! 100GB iriver H140?
sordup:
Update on my attempt at this upgrade:
After a couple weeks of working successfully, my ihp140 running on a 100G toshiba HDD through the Dealextreme adapter, the thing stopped booting up with an error at the start screen of "Result: -5" (the same error that I received when fist squeezing everything back together and not having insulated the folded connector ribbon). Now i can not even get my previous IDE connector drives to boot either Rockbox or the original iriver firmware and my beloved ihp is now the proverbial brick.
It is as if the adapter corrupted the drive connection bridge.
An alternate option without the extreme squeeze would be desirable.
And if anyone knows of a solution to the Result: -5 error, please tell me...
Addendum: Most likely the too tight fit in this case was due to my higher capacity battery - something I'm only now realizing...

How about try this one:

It's now the best one. The only needed modification is modding bottom ruber.
I'll upload some picture when I get that adapter. It will be next weekend.
Multiplex:
If you've had to squeeze everything in there might you have the ATA/USB card soldering problem? - I can't remember if that gave -5 or -1 as an error
