I think my H340 hard drive is totally F(&(*@!
I am really bummed I changed my battery a couple months back and my player worked great - now this!
Here is what happens - maybe someone can help me! Rockbox Mode - Player powers up, says Rockbox bootloader version 5 batt 4V - then freezes. Sometimes I get ATA error; -1 Insert USB cable and press a button. I have had it with a USB cable in it read Bootloader USB mode. Nothing shows up in My Computer - Drive does not read. Regular mode: it reads check HDD connection. When screen comes up all reads 0 for folders. Hardrive does not come up at all on My Computer. Is this the end of my player?? Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

I fixed my player. I thought I would share what happen: When I changed the battery I think the hard drive was put under more pressure, as the new battery was bigger. Perhaps after a few knocks the pressure on the hard drive caused it the stop spinning. I opened UP the player, disconnected and the reconnected the hard drive, this started the hard drive working, until I put the unit back together. The answer finally was leaving a side screw out, to offer more interior space, that the hard drive would not have too much pressure against. Short story: It worked, I hope this helps someone who might have the same problem.

Well, it looks like the hard drive just kicked it's last breath does anyone know where to order a replacement hard drive for the H340?
Does iriver make another player that is compatible with windows 2000, that has a similar portable hard drive format like the h340, if not just one compatible with windows 2000? Thanks in advance! |

iriver no longer make any 40gb hdd players but the mistic iriver store offers HDD replacements for H3xx
otherwise a little searching gets you [Q] Is it possible to upgrade the hard drive in my 3xx series player? As for the windows 2000 compatible, wouldn't any DAP work as long as you have the appropriate drivers? |
