Installing a CF drive in iPod Classic 6th Gen
I am trying to install a CF adapter with a 64GB Compact Flash card in an IPOD classic 6th generation. This drive should replace a broken 80GB drive. Unfortunately, each time the IPOD boots it displays the Red X. IPOD works fine with a conventional drive. The CF adapter when connected to the computer through a USB enclosure works fine. For some reason in the IPOD the activity LED on the board does not light up, indicating a possible power issue. I am posting a picture of the setup. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Does this setup require a special cable? Any suggestions?
Is this a good question?
