Walrus:
Sadly, my 240GB rockbox'd iPod seems to have not made it back from some recent travels.  I guarded this thing with my life for three years, and somehow lost it somewhere in Austin. 

Apparently RapidRepair is no longer selling these, so is are there any other alternatives with a similar capacity?  I could just suck it up and get a 160GB classic with crappy firmware, but after having 240 gigs with glorious Ogg Vorbis capabilities for so many years, going backwards will just depress me.  I imagine I'm screwed, but I figured it's worth asking.  Thanks!  :)

Chronon:
You can always upgrade the stock HD in a supported player.

Walrus:
Right.  Are there any upgradable to 240 gigs?  ;)

Chronon:
I think most of the 240GB drives use a ZIF connector, so probably look for one that uses ZIF.

I notice it's missing the Gigabeat S, which also has a ZIF interface.

I'm also not sure of how up to date the list of HDs is.

torne:
Using the Gigabeat S with a drive larger than 128GiB is likely to be difficult and the workaround has not been confirmed to actually work, so it may not be the best recommendation.

You could just get an iPod Video and fit a 240GB drive; that's what RapidRepair were selling anyway.
