Description

I try to upgrade my iPod 6th Gen 80GB in 2023.

This video showcases replacing its failed hard drive with an iFlash.xyz iFlash Solo adapter and a 128GB SD card, giving this classic a new lease on life.

I also upgrade its look with new front and back plates from Elite Obsolete Electronics.https://eoe.works/

The journey hits a snag with a 2000mAh battery from EOE that doesn’t fit, adding a twist to this tech restoration tale.
Hope you like it, folks!
