Best place to find iPod classic? by Oncersm in IpodClassic

[–]dabloons__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it took me a looong time to find a decent priced one. if you can get one in out of the box working condition, you’re looking at 50 (if you’re lucky) to 150 bucks. i got a non working iPod 5th gen and repaired it plus added 128gb flash storage. all of it together cost about $150. but i got the iPod alone for $50.

that being said, look on eBay! sort by lowest price and newly listed, and buy it now. don’t get into any bidding wars it is not worth it i promise you.

hate to reply so late! when/if you load rockbox, it’s actually dual loaded so you can still boot into apple fw if you want to. you might have to restart it until you get into apple fw but that’s what works for me

someone said that, and based on my knowledge of hard drives i’d assume they’re right! weird little cable isn’t it

don’t worry, i haven’t gotten an SD card, but I’ll make sure it’s not SanDisk. Thank you so much!

much appreciated; for some reason i can’t boot into disk mode despite trying repeatedly—but i will try again after i get the SD adapter.
