Wont work. The iaudio X5 uses 50 pin ATA connectors. Those harddrives uses a 40pin ZIF connector.

You can try to find an ATA->ZIF converter. Though I doubt it would inside the case of the X5 if such things do exist. There is also the probability that the adapter wouldnt work anyway.

Thx! I also realized that cursed 40-pin ZIF connector meanwhile..

Found adapter on span.com (after surfing misticriver), but I agree that it would not work. Ehh.
