Ever wonder what's inside that Apple iPod Classic from 2007? This one was dying (likely a hard drive issue). While some people have reported banging the iPod hard to unstick the hard drive head, I decided to tear it down instead! Do you still use a 5th Gen iPod 30gb? Let me know in the comments!

I have same type of iPod but mine works well. Has tons of songs and 6 movies. But only works if you keep it on charge with charging cable.

Yes sadly all of these devices with embedded batteries will lose battery life and eventually need to run plugged in. You can find replacement batteries online but many are cheap unreliable replacements (I have a video on my channel showing what happened when I replaced my iPhone battery with a cheap eBay one... so buyer beware)!

I tried to replace the cracked faceplate (the iPod was working), but after it was replaced, something was burning on the board and I got that same sad face. Really tried to save it, but I actually made things worse.

It's good that you at least tried.

Good idea. Sadly on the teardown I ended up shredding a small flatflex cable going off to the pause switch and headphone jack so it became a lost cause. :-(
