Gigabeat F40 hdd upgrade
psycho_maniac:
just wondering looking at the wiki page i see that the F40 is a 8mm thick does this mean i could get the 240 gig drive and it would fit in my toshiba gigabeat F40? Right now its a F80

Your ZIF connector is shorting on the hard drive. put a piece of tape on the metal case right by where the connector inserts so as to prevent shorting.
See this image for something a bit more clear.
Edit: I too initially thought it was an issue with the hard bends required in fitting the zif cable, but after fixing the short, the device worked despite the bends.

Thank you, that is about the ONLY place I don't have a piece of tape! I will give it a shot on the weekend.

im thinking about making a wiki page for modded players. just wondering what it should be named? ModdedPlayers or PlayersModified ? I want a list of items on the page such as who | device | what was modified | and comments any other ideas? im bored and got time on my hands but i was looking for some input
Llorean:
Why do we need a wiki page about who has modified what?
For specific modifications there can be a wiki page with detailed processes for performing it, but there's not really a good reason to just have a table showing who's done what.

could i use the 240 zif hd with my gigabeat F seies?
