Hi,

I have an ADATA usb drive of 8gigs. i bought it an year ago. I hav a new sandisk drive soo i dont need my old one. also the outer shell of the old drive is broken....

soo i decided tht i will do something with it..... i thot of converting it to a portable mp3 player....

if any of has done this before please help me with this..... any suggestions or comments...

thanks

 

It would cost more than several 8G MP3 players to DIY an MP3 player.

 

I dunno about the cost, but here are some easy DIY MP3 players...

Same project refined simpler still with 16LF88; http://teuthis.com/html/mmc_mp3.html

That last link is a really nice minimalist design.

And hi blueroom!
