hi guys. i'm in a little bit of a problem. i bought a toshiba hardrive used in the ipods ( up to 4th gen) and i wanted a zif harddrive. as you all know, this one has an female ata connector. i searched all over ebay to find a male ata to zif adapter but i couldn't find one. do you have any idea from where i could get one. i live in belgium so the shop must have this shipping possibility
I presume you trying to get a new hard drive to go in the iPod? If so I can't help you - all I've been able to find is this http://www.addonics.com/products/io/aaedt18ide25.asp which might work if you connected the 1.8" drive to the 2.5" adaptor then to the 2.5" to ZIF adaptor.
Deal extreme has a bunch of converters... http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.19479 ZIF to SATA http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10885 ZIF to 3.5" IDE the ZIF to SATA doesnt say if it comes with a ribbon cable or not, so you might wanna stick with the 3.5" IDE Good site, product quality can vary, the adaptors like that usually work well, but shipping wise, it can take forever to come in. (but shipping is free though )
thanks for the link, but none of them are any good to me. i wanted to use an ipod harddrive inj an aspire one. and i needed a zif 1.8" harddrive. anyway, i baught an zif to :"toshiba adapter" and i will conect the pairing holes with wire
