    I have a VGN-T150 that was without a hard drive. I was looking for a new one and heard that a 5th gen iPod had the same hard drive. I bought a broken 80GB iPod and realized that it was a different connector and part number from what I heard.

    The hard drive that I have is a MK8010GAH with what I think is a ZIF connector.
    I think that the hard drive that I need is a MK8025GAL with a 44 pin connector which I think is an ATA-7.

    I am looking for any advice possible. Does any one know if I am able to get an adapter to work? I would need a male ZIF to a female ATA-7 adapter, but I have not found one yet. Does anyone know if there is an iPod with a MK8025GAL hard drive?

    Thanks for reading this and any help that you have.
