The 2000ma battery did not fit when using Tarkan's CF board,
With thin back plate or thick back plate? Also with CF card or with the SDXC?

From my understanding and what I've been told the 2000mAh won't fit (barely) with the CF adaptor or a CF card. It will fit with the msata only because the msata setup is a hair thinner. That's with the thick back plate as well. Msata adaptor > msata drive > 2000mah > thick backplate is the only setup that will fit without having to be forced together which results in pressure on the components.
Hmm ... that sucks the 2000mAh only fits the msata mod. Imagine how many hrs of play time with that battery for a CF card? I am wondering if the CF cards from different manufacturers have the same thickness. Maybe we can trim the CF card housing a little bit without impairing the card.
I am a little concerned about placing the battery right against the msata due to the heat.
yeah, tarkan-msata-adapter arrived today. I will build a crucial 480gb-iPod for the beginning. But ordered already another msata-adapter
I do have 2 questions: (edit: 3 questions)...
1. my girlfriend wants a 250 ssd iPod. which ssd (not cf/sd-card) is the most "bulled prove" one in this size-range? the bp4? if yes, plese tell me the excact model nr. (strangly couldn't find it here in europe (amazon.de)
2. I have 5.5g, 6g and 7g. I wanna buy new faceplates for all of them. do you know some good ebay-sellers who offer 5.5 plastic and especially (!!!) 6/7g aluminium-faceplates which look most OEM/original. I guess for 5.5 won't be so difficult. But I cant find any "OEM/original" looking aluminium face plates for 6/7g. So please tell me with which ebay seller you had good experience. thanks sooooooo much
edit:
3. did buy for my friends 4 new 160gb toshiba mk1634gal harddisks from the ebay-seller "sky-1688" article "221217725810". DON'T buy them. he declares them as *new*. but 3 of 4 were broken!! now he admits that they are refurbished. grrrr. so my question. do you know any serious ebay-seller who sells brand new toshiba 160gb mk1634gal hard disks? (i know is a little bit off topic as its not ssd, sorry)
That's because the bp4's name on amazon uk is :- "240GB MyDigitalSSD BP4 Bullet Proof 4". It's a third party seller memoryc but they were fine when I used them to order a kingspec ssd from.

TeraPod now had Tarkan adapter and 2000mAh battery!
Nice! Is that a classic cover? Also are you able to just move the msata from the generic adapter to the Tarkan without restoring the ipod?
I know the 2000mAh can last long hrs, would like to know the comparison between the Miliamp and this monster in terms of handling power surge.
I think for the msata (especially the 1TB) it's important for the battery to handle the power surge without potentially losing the data due to a power failure.
EDIT: I am currently using a non OEM 7g replacement battery for the Terapod. The battery actually performs surprisingly good. What I don't know is when the battery drains low how it will respond to power surge demand from the msata drive.
