this is when im trying to get the micro drive out of the ipod.

Did the imp magically appear when surgically extracting the micro-drive?

Just curious.

On top of it all, it looks like you’ve bent the microdrive.  :?

it’s a 4gb micro drive inside.

first of all, the ipod is no longer usable.
and then today afternoon i came across the ipodlounge.com’s article about dissembled ipod mini and i’m curious if i can still use the drive inside,so i took apart everything (the hard way) this evening.

it appears that the drive has been damaged.
and yes it’s bend

The 1.8” Toshibas taken from iPods also have the Apple logo on them. Apple’s a very big customer for both companies.
