You can use iPod as a hard disk, to store and transfer data files.
To enable iPod as a hard disk:

In iTunes, select iPod in the Source list and click the Options button.

When you use iPod as a hard disk, the iPod disk icon appears on the desktop on the
Mac, or as the next available drive letter in Windows Explorer on a Windows PC.

enables iPod to be used as a hard disk.
Note: To transfer music files to iPod, you must use iTunes. Songs transferred via iTunes
do not appear on iPod in the Macintosh Finder or Windows Explorer. Likewise, if you
