With no moving parts and a new battery, it should be in good shape for years to come. Specifications: Simple and convenient cleaning solution for PC/laptop keyboard and other rugged surface cleaning such as the car vent, camera, printer, cell phone, calculator and peaker. The finished product is a stock-looking iPod that weighs a noticeable amount less than the other 5th generation I own. After a quick restore, it showed up as a regular iPod and synced music and photos without any issues. I powered up the iPod and plugged it into iTunes. Screen protector on lower part of front plate, click wheel and on backplate. It’s shaped to fit into the chassis cleanly, and once the data cable was set, I buttoned everything up by popping the iPod closed again. I’d also recently come across a nice little PCB made by Tarkan Akdam called the iFlash iPod Compact Flash Adapter (mk II) which allows one to replace the 1. Tarkan iFlash Solo with a 256gb Samsung EVO MicroSD. Once the battery was in, I unplugged the old spinning hard drive and placed the iFlash into the case, SD card pre-installed. The adhesive used is made of some type of ancient magic. Replacing the battery involved prying the old one out of the case slowly. Even with previous experience and the tools iFixit shipped with the battery, I ended up cutting across the back of one of my fingers. It plugs into the cable used by the standard hard drive, and is shaped to snap directly into the iPod’s case. The iFlash is a small black card that holds an SD card inside the iPod. In addition to a new battery, I replaced the 30 GB hard drive with a 128 GB SD card via a third-party part called the Tarkan iFlash.
#TARKAN IFLASH UPGRADE#
I have both a white and a black one in my collection, so I thought it’d be fun to upgrade one of them. I have an iPod classic that I keep loaded with music, but there’s something about the 5th generation “video” iPod that really speaks to me.
