I don’t think so, but you can use this to upgrade your 5g IPod Hard Drive

Extremely good.

“I don’t think so, but you can use this to upgrade your 5g IPod Hard Drive”
This would work great for Zune, but I don’t see the point of upgrading a 5GB iPod to 100GB, and besides that, it wont fit in a 5GB iPod, it will fit in a Zune.

I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t work for a Zune but it requires extra space for the hard drive just as a 30 gb 5th gen ipod would. the back case of a 60 or 80gb ipod don’t require a case upgrade and I don’t know if there are larger cases available for zunes…thanks microsoft…

Zunes can fit the larger drives, you just need to remove the harddrive cage.

Check out ipodmods.com for detailed installation instructions to add this HDD to the zune. There’s some slight alteration required, but nothing too complicated.
