Supersized iPods A Sell-Out picture

Back in February, Rapid Repair began supersizing iPods (30GB, 60GB and 80GB original iPod video) with new 240GB hard drives for $300. (Null any warranty, however)

In the first two hours the service was available, Rapid Repair received 300 orders - more than its inventory could handle. A month later the company had solved its supply problem and upgraded 500 iPods, though the drives are again out of stock.
The 1.8-inch Toshiba hard drives are roughly the same size as regular iPod hard drives. Thanks to  advances in storage technology, the company tapped into a market for expanded iPods that the computer giant isn’t serving, Fortune reports.
