Q. will apple branded drives fit the h100/h300s?

[hypnotic monkey]

been looking on ebay, most hard drives (toshiba MKGAH) are apple branded, obviously due to the popularity of the ipod. however, will these drives function correctly in our iriver players? searched this for 10 minutes, but couldnt find anything! (no, seriously) is there any modification neccassary etc, and if so, what? thanks

The iPod and iRiver use the same HD so it should be fine.

That'd be a good thing if I can get a cheaper 30gig hdd from an ipod photo. It's a lot easier to find busted apple products w/ a functional hdd than I thought :P. If the price is right, I could just put the hdd in my h120.

im thinking of getting the faulty 60 gig apple photo too but IIRC,i read some where saying once ipoo batt died,u cant transfer the hdd out as they are s/w encrypted...

is it true???

if this is not true i dont mind getting ipoo 60 gig,dismantle it n resale it again as 20-30 or 40

yeah, im going to take the risk until I know it will work, that apple logo is there for a reason...
