Chosen Solution

iPod's with hard drives tend to spin down, when not loading anything, or the iPod is idle, my video's drive only spins at startup, or when loading a song, video, application, etc. try checking the hard drive connector cable, and drive, as for these can be bad. In a worst case scenario, the logic board might be bad.
