I got my Hyperdrive, and my 80GB Travelstar hitachi 7200rpm drive came in.

Question... I noticed that the dates HD creates is wrong. It creates the directories CARD000x.UHS as dated JUNE 6, 2003!

How can I fix the date?

The manual does not say anything about correcting the dates.

You can't. The HD80 doesn't know anything about dates. There is no way to set the date. It's mentioned in the manual. The CF card directories WILL have the date as created by the camera. The camera data is always copied verbatim.

This is weird. Because no matter what CF card I use, the directories HD creates is always JUNE 6, 2003.

I even formatted a CF card in my camera, took a picture... then put it in the HD. The serial # date is CARD0009.UHS with date of JUNE 6, 2003.

The 217CANON subdirectory inside is dated JUNE 6, 2003.

But the JPEG inside has the correct date and time.

Finaly got an answer at Hyperdrive support.

With regards to your question, the date June 6 2003 is the when the firmware was created.
The HD80 does not have an internal clock and will by default tag June 6 2003 to the folders it creates.

Oh well, at least a folder date isn't serious. When you import via zoom browser, everything goes into the correctly-dated folders anyway.
