Basically I will convert an old dead harddrive into an 'SSD'. I must admit, this is more of a form over function thing - is is going to be something where I improve my hacking-stuff-together skills, and result in a pretty cool conversation piece. I was inspired by this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmHBLqYzimE Make] video, with this accompanying [https://fixme.ch/wiki/File:Flash_Memory_Hard_Disk.pdf article] in the Makezine magazine from June 2009. I think it is easily possible to replicate, if not improve, what was shown there.<br /> <br /> == Goal ==<br /> * Gut out an existing HDD<br /> * Remove the motor from the HDD &lt;ref name=&quot;ref1&quot;&gt;This thing [https://fixme.ch/wiki/File:Stuck-HDD-motor.jpg here]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * Fit comfortably a USB Hub with 4 X 32 GB USB flash drives<br /> * Make it look very clean and professional<br /> * Use the molex pins with a DIY adapter for USB output<br /> <br /> == Obstacle ==<br /> A list of known obstacles:<br /> * The motor doesn't want to get out &lt;ref name=&quot;ref2&quot;&gt;I NEED a dremel!&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * The parts are pricey by themselves, so I'll have to buy in bulk<br /> <br /> A list of potential obstacles:<br /> * Making all 4 USB flash drives work as a single one under both Mac and pc<br /> * Getting desired data throughput using molex pins<br /> <br /> == Components ==<br /> Have<br /> * Old HDD<br /> * Spare Molex and USB cable<br /> * USB Hub<br /> <br /> Don't have<br /> * 4 x High speed 32GB flash drives &lt;ref name=&quot;ref3&quot;&gt;http://www.toppreise.ch/prod_200784.html&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * Drilling skills<br /> <br /> == Schedule ==<br /> I want to be done with this ASAP, as this project has already been waiting for an über long time. If I can get the motor out somehow, half the task would be done and I wouldn't need to make a wiki entry which basically begs for a dremel.<br /> <br /> == Participant ==<br /> * [[User:Sasha]]</div>
