Default Step Right Up, Get Your 100 GB Zunes Right Here...
http://www.ipodmods.com/shop/3018-hard-drive-disk-mk1011gah.html

"Get a replacement Hard Disk Drive for your 5th Generation iPod with Video (Revision 1 or 2) or Microsoft Zune Digital Media Player. This item is a brand new Toshiba Hard Drive and will work in ALL iPod Video units & Microsoft Zune Players. Model number may vary slightly from the picture below, but is an accurate representation of the drive. Toshiba 100GB MK1011GAH Hard Drive for 5th Gen iPod w/ Video & Microsoft Zune Players...This does require a larger backing for the iPod if you are upgrading a 30GB to a 100GB. Zune players do not need a larger backing."



It will cost you $299 to get this 100 GB upgrade, but you'll also get a Zune Extended Battery ($19.99 USD value) that will give you an extra 6% battery boost (apparently, enough for 30 to 60 minutes of extra music). There's definitely something appealing about getting a hard drive put in my Zune that would store all of my music (75 GB right now) and still have enough space left over for a bunch of video content. Once the Zune software can sync DVR-MS files (Media Center recording format), I'll definitely want a bigger hard drive.

For DVR-MS support try Zune TV watcher. I paid for programs to do this, but this one works so much better. It converts programs in the background to WMV and all you have to do is set up a playlist.

I always have the last month worth of TV on my zune.

iPodMods.com is SUCH a rip off.

You can get the EXACT SAME HARD DRIVE from various other sites for a fraction of the cost. I remember seeing the same 100gb hard drive for $209 on a different site.

www.froogle.com and search for MK1011GAH

Right, but they're also charging for the installation - not everyone (and I include myself here) is comfortable cracking open their Zune.

Does the RapidRepair (IpodMod) version include the firmware upgrade utility on the upgrade drive itself - or is something relatively easy to accomplish with a stock (non-rapid repair) drive? Anyone actually installed a non Rapid Repair drive?

Thanks! Bob

Also, good luck trying to find one of those drives currently at one of the discount sites - they all seem to be out of stock. If someone knows where they have them in stock, please post.
