Is it posibble to use iPod as a hard drive?
So I have this Dell in my home, thats been collecting dust the past few years, because the hard drive fryed up or something during a power surge. The support guy said to put in a new hard drive.
I’m wondering, instead of going out and buying a hard drive, could I use my blank iPod 80gb as a hard drive for it by putting Windows Vista on it from a torrent, or buying it (which is what I will most likely do )
Will that get it running?
does the dell have USB2? I don’t know how well a computer would run off of USB1
My dell has USB 2.0
So now that I know it will run, what OS should I download to the iPod?
The computer specs are:
Dell Demension 2750
Pentium 4 Processor 2.2 GHz
256 mb ram (or 512)
80 GB hard drive (ipod)
I am starting to think about not running Vista due to such low ram. Which program is best guys?
Thanks for the help so far.
more work than its worth. just get a cheapie hard drive

Boot XP from a USB flash drive
I would think apply this to a USB hdd would be the same
Google: boot vista from usb drive
There are a number of forum topics that show up but I didn’t look at all of them to see if any actually worked

i know that
the problem is his pc’s bios, which may not have the option to boot on a USB device. only modern machines have those.
his is a Dimension 2 series. What’s the current one?
why would you even put that in there? just say you are planning to buy vista instead of breaking the forum rules and implying you are going to steal it.
