I MOD 3 woes, don't do THIS! (modified 0 times) GWIZAH Profile | Email Oh man, You guys are for sure going to think Im an idiot but here goes, I just finished frying my IMOD 3 and a 6 gig travelstar HD....How you ask? Well it seems that as I was booting up my desktop with the travelstar hooked up to the IMOD 3 I didnt secure it properly and the 5v fan pins came in contact with my case! Traces Peeled, smoke was smelt, it was a baaaad day. Now Im out about $90. Please make sure you have everything properly secured before doing anything with your I-o. At least its just two pieces of hardware. Please, use caution when attempting even the most basic modifications. Trust me! 03-08-2001 13:49:15
