It featured a newer BootROM version which patched the 24kPwn BootROM exploit and has a smaller device capacity label similar to that of the iPod touch 3rd gen. In late 2009, Apple introduced a revised version of the second-gen iPod touch under the MC model name, which was only available in an 8GB variant.

Two revisions of the device exist, one with an old BootROM exploitable with 24kPwn with a larger device capacity label on the back. The second-generation iPod Touch was only sold in 8GB, 16GB and 32GB models.

It is compatible with up to iOS 4.2.1, which was released on November 22, 2010. The successor to the 1st-generation iPod Touch, it was unveiled and released at Apple's media event on September 9, 2008. I'm not sure it would make any difference to your issue anyway.The second-generation iPod Touch (marketed as " the new iPod touch", and colloquially known as the iPod Touch 2G, iPod Touch 2, or iPod 2) is a multi-touch mobile device designed and marketed by Apple Inc. Sorry I can't be more help, but if the Classic's software is still available to download, I don't know where it is. On my iPod for example, if I added a 256GB SSD, the iPod would only ever be able to address 128GB of that memory, no matter what I do. * Regarding the SSD you have installed into your iPod, you should with consult the supplier who provided the SSD, because there are limitations on how much of the memory can be addressed by the software and that's not something that Apple even thinks about since it's not their upgrade. (On the iPod Touch, the different iOS versions reflect changes to the way the iPod works and different hardware, depending on which version of iOS is being discussed.) Certainly, my iPod had no updates for many years and as far as I'm aware the difference between the software versions 2.0.1 and later is due to different hardware within the device. However, regardless of whether yours has 2.0.4 or 2.0.5 as far as I know, there is no upgrade to the software available (but see the next paragraph*).

I believe that 2.0.1 was the last available software for the 120GB iPod Classic.

The Wikipedia article for the Classic mentions only 2.0.5. Here’s the full DIY instructions for putting one together yourself. Tap Automatic Updates, then turn on Download iOS Updates. This week on Circuit Breaker Live, we updated an old iPod with flash memory and a new battery. To my knowledge, the last iPod Classic model (6th generation, 2nd revision, also knows as 7th generation) was originally shipped with 2.0.2, and there was an update to 2.0.3. Turn on automatic updates Go to Settings > General > Software Update. The Classic's software is known as 1.1.2 PC (well, mine is)
