My real question: Is there some way to re-format the hard drive without replacing it? - Kevin Sat, 19 Apr 2008 03:54:59 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/update-zune-80-gb.html#pc_906 What can you tell me about this problem when using Windows XP 2002 version, the Zune software and device will have many problems on your computer, although on the box it says that you only need an XP or Vista. The technical support member told me that "unfortunately, Microsoft has overlooked the fact that XP 2002 SP2 users will not be able to use it without problems and we would need Media Center 2005 edition." Great, but I already bought the device based on the information on the website and on the box, on which it does not say this. They gave me a 1-866 number to call (Microsoft XP update support) and told me to try to persuade the guys there to give me an update to Windows Media Center 2005! Sounds ridiculous? There is more. After I talked to the technical support team at Windows XP for half an hour, I got even more ridiculous suggestions. They basically told me that they would not give me an update for free and they tried to sell me the Windows XP Media Center edition. So, you need to be aware that if you are using XP 2002 edition with SP2, you will get an unprecedented tragicomedy from Microsoft. I am also very confident that most other users with newer operating systems have considerable number of problems with the software, which can be confirmed by checking out Zune forums. Please give me some feedback on this.

Zune needs a 1.8" hard drive with zif socket. - Zune-Online.com Wed, 20 Jun 2007 22:55:29 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/update-zune-80-gb.html#pc_546 If the Zune uses any 1.8" hard drives then you could by an Apricorn Mini and take the drive out of it: http://www.apricorn.com/product_detail.php?type=family&id=5 - budderduck Wed, 20 Jun 2007 22:24:54 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/update-zune-80-gb.html#pc_110 These hard disks are 1,8" , not the same used for laptops. Toshiba announced a 100 GB also, but I'm not currently sure if it is compatible with Zune. - Zune-Online.com Wed, 13 Dec 2006 03:50:22 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/update-zune-80-gb.html#pc_109 can you use any laptop harddrive to do this. and can you put a even bigger size in other then 80 gigs - thebear Wed, 13 Dec 2006 03:40:10 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/update-zune-80-gb.html#pc_90 The guys at iPodMods found that if they remove a metallic plate from the hard disk the case can close again without problem. (I don't know if this plate removal can cause any problems to the hard disk or not). Check thier website. - Zune-Online.com Fri, 01 Dec 2006 16:00:55 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/update-zune-80-gb.html#pc_89 Cant you just simply create a back case for the Zune? Wouldn't that be an easier solution? - Dominic Fri, 01 Dec 2006 15:51:22 +0200
