First off let me jsut say that I am glad I chose not to sell my ipod to a couple of members here. The hard drive stopped working a few days ago.
After reading many things on "ipodlounge.com" and a few other places I have found that you can replace the hard drive. Cost is around $100 for the part.
I also found a "service" on ebay that says that they can actually "fix" the harddrive for $30 + shipping.
(ipod is out of warranty and Apple wants $275 to fix it:thumbsdown: )
Just curious if anyone here has ever fixed one, had one fixed, used the service, or knows of someone local that can do the same thing?
For $30+ shipping it might be worth fixing. (3rd generation 20G). For $100+ I think I would rather upgrade to a new one and give this one to a friend to have and fix.
