Update: Zune 80 GB Print E-mail

iPodMods didt it. They found the way to put back together Zune with 80 GB disk. They had to remove a metal plate and the back panel could be placed on Zune again...

After doing something like the following, you should know the warranty of your Zune is invalid.

Zune 80 GB
Step 1

Take the new 60GB or 80GB drive and remove the metal plate label. Use your fingernail to pop the label side off of the drive. There are 2 sticker spots holding this on so it will not come off too easily.

Step 2

After the label plate is removed we are ready to connect the new drive inside the Zune. We may also mail the new drive to you without this plate to make it a bit easier.

Step 3

We will NOT reuse the hard drive cage when installing a 60GB or 80GB drive. the drive is too large and we cannot close the case if we install the new drive using the metal drive cage. for the 40GB drive you can simply use the above guide as everything will be reused because it is the exact same size as the 30GB drive. You should cut your old drive pads to fit 2 of them on the new drive as pictured. you cannot use too much or the drive will not fit properly. You should also reuse the old battery enclosure so the battery is seated properly. Now just reassemble the Zune and you have a ton more storage.
