    Anyone know is it possible to take out a 32gb hard disk from iPod touch 5g and put it into an iPhone 5?

    Physically, I'd say yes. If you were proficient with desoldering chips from main boards and resoldering them. That is of course assuming that the memory blocks are compatible. You might have to hack into firmware if the original size is encoded somewhere.

    It'd be a great electronic engineering college project.

    First of all they use motherboards not hard disks. you'd be better off getting a bigger motherboard for your your iPhone. It would save loads if trouble

    Even if you could I doubt it would boot at all. Sounds like a lot of hurt doing something like that.
