Error 1429 when trying to restore with new SSD

I keep getting error 1429 when restoring my iPod. I have replaced the Hard Drive with an iFlash adaptor. I am using a 128 GB micro SSD and have tried reformatting the drive, with no luck.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

You probably need to try a different SD card. I Typically use PNY Elite - X Class 10 or Lexar Professional 1667x UHS-II SD not Micro SD. They work great. I’ve had trouble with a few other brands and have never used a micro but I’ve successfully built 24 brand new iPod 6th and 7th gens w/128GB SD coupled with the iFlash Solo and swapped another 20+ so these are my go to. I pick whichever is the cheaper at the time.
