Hi there, what a crap title…

anyway, my TR1MP bought not very long ago at all, is looking a bit dated now that the TR5 has just been released in UK, that means they are probably on TR9 in Japan or something… anyway I wanted to put my TR1 under the knife so to speak as aging celebrities do it, may as well for my tr.

So what I want is DVD-rw, 1024gig ram, A+B+G wlan, 40gig hard drive and extended battery.

Could someone perhaps point me to relevant topics regarding upgrading to dvd rw, (ram wlan and battery are ok) , and does anyone know if the 40 gig hard drive found in the tr5’s is available to buy yet?

Thanks for any info you guys can give me… also, any other upgrade ideas are more than welcome.. uk models already have the integrated bluetooth.

cheers

wouldn’t it be faster to sell your TR1 and go for a TR3 or TR5 ?  :?

you could always do what i’m doing and sell the TR1MP and replace it with a new S1XP.. it really doesn’t seem that much bigger/heavier (although admittedly i’m yet to see one in person).

Mind you, even then i think you are going to struggle to get 1024GB of RAM in it!  :D

I guess so, how much are tr1’s going for now tho? not much I’d of thought, + I do like my little projects something of a tamperer of sorts and like messing around with innards of stuff!

mr. wig, despite your need to tamper and play, it will cost you a pretty penny to do what you so desire. i don’t know exactly how much it would cost b ut probably near the 1G mark. As it’s been suggested, i would also recommend selling and buying. Not just to save time and possibly money, but to guarantee that everything works, and if not, will be replaced for free. my two cents

yes you are probably right, however could someone perhaps give me the model numbers for the dvd drive and the 40g hard drive in the tr2 + ?

just out of curiosity perhaps…

thankyou!

You can actually find all of this information if you do a search on the site. However, I will help you out this time.  :wink:
