FYI, the hard drive is a 30 GB Samsung "Duramatic" laptop-style 2.5" drive. Model number is HM031HC

I might be able to pull an image of the drive that I could send you, if you don't need the actual physical hard drive.

Hello. Thank you very much for answering. I am very interested. a question. Do you have the disk image or the hdd? I ask because I am in Mexico and maybe it will be difficult to send the hdd here, I don't know. How could I do to buy it?

It's the old IDE 40-pin type of hard drive, instead of the newer SATA connector, so I don't have a way of making an image of the drive. But, let me ask some coworkers. Someone might have an IDE-to-USB adapter. They're only like $10 on Amazon!

Do you have the MyGIG taken apart? Swapping the hard drive is not hard once you get the MyGIG removed from the dashboard. If you could buy a 2.5" 30 GB IDE hard drive, then all you'd need is the image. That is why I still have the actual "Chrysler" hard drive. I used a Western Digital hard drive when I replaced my MyGIG drive, and I kept the "Chrysler" one as a safe backup. The Chrysler OEM hard drive is a Samsung "Duramatic" 30 GB 2.5" drive, model number HM031HC

Someone HM031HC drives ebay for $162 which is totally crazy, because you can just use any IDE laptop drive, and they're like $10-$15 on ebay. If worse comes to worst, I will ship you my HM031HC hard drive for just the cost of shipping. I can't imagine it would be more than like $20.

If you want, I can put my hard drive on ebay as a private listing, and that way I can get ebay discounted international shipping...

Sound great for me! Could you put the link here? I don't know if the forum allows it. Thanks for the help! I'm ready 😃

These drives are for sale for like $200 online, it's absolutely insane. I put mine on ebay starting at $0.01. I hope this works!

Hi there, it looks like the hard drive was delivered. Have you swapped it in, and is everything working now? Just curious how you made out! I still think it's wild that you found me on this forum, and that I still had the hard drive from several years ago, and that I shipped it to Mexico!!

hi. I'm still waiting! I have not received it yet, I managed to locate it, it is in Mexico City waiting to be reviewed by customs, then it travels to Tijuana where I am. Delivery is scheduled for Saturday 20. As soon as it arrives I will install it and share the result with you. cant wait

I have installed the disk. everything works great. I have disk space and maps working without problem. I really appreciate your help, I already have a backup of the disk so that the same thing doesn't happen again. It was amazing to have been able to find a replacement after such a long time. once again, thank you very much.
