Hi guys, i was given an old one without memory.. i was thinking i could use this to set up an ad-hoc mp3 player with an hd, using a PIC as an interface between the ide controller and the rio. Anyone have more information about the pinouts of the rio's? (mine is a rio 600) I am really willing to rip this thing apart, but i'd like to know what the best way to attack the problem is. i've googled, but to no avail. ideas/suggestions are more than welcome. If you think this is going to be an excersize in futility, do not be afraid to voice your mind.
