Did you try to format your ipod? Maybe you have guarantee? In your case I think you have damaged flash controller.

You bought from an individual, with no guarantees, made by an unknown chinese company? I think you were asking for trouble! !

Drive proabably has HPA activated because the person used failing memory to sell you it much cheaper.
morale of the story. Buy the real thing, with the warranty. The flash based ipods should last you a very long time.
