What new HD for Original Jukebox studio 20?
hanak.j:
My JB20 is starting to make those dreaded clicking sounds! :'(
What have you done when this happens? I'm thinking new drive. What would you recommend I put into it, and where would you get it?
Looking for 80GB or more.
Thanks for your help.
Llorean:
Please don't post such questions in the "Installation" forum.
When the wiki returns, there's a hard drive replacement wiki page t hat should offer a good deal of advice, I think.
TAC109:
How old are your batteries?
As batteries age they develop a high internal resistance, and may not be able to supply enough voltage to power the hard drive, causing the clicking sounds.
Try a new set of batteries to see if that cures the problem.
hanak.j:
Batteries are new, and this even happens when plugged into AC power. When these sounds were made by my iPod, death followed soon.
Also, I thought this was the "Repairing broken players" forum. Is fixing a defective HD not appropriate material? ???
Chronon:
I interpret Llorean's message as saying that it was originally in the installation forum, not here. This is fair play for this forum. :)
The wiki page that you want is called HardDriveReplacement. I also found a useful table via Google whose contents should probably be added to our wiki page: http://hdmp4.com/Choose+HDD
Also, read our wiki page called BigDisk if you wish to get a drive that's larger than 137GB.
