WiiNewz has obtained exclusive comments on the "D2Nothing" drives from a member of the D2Pro Team...

on such a solution, and that we have backups running on the d2nothing
drive. More details will be made available soon.

And yet again the D2Pro team are the first to crack a new board revision... Damn I love you guys.

I guess Matshita didn't try too hard to stop the mod chips then... just a cost cutting / obscurity / stop clips measure?

I wonder how many wires this solution needs

[HybridKid]

Good to hear that someone has done it, and I'm curious to know how many wires it will require.

Umm... I think we can safely suppose wire count will be lesser than 20 if their solution works on a d2pro.

Well, usually d2pro team prefers to sell the same chips with revised firmware instead of allowing to update the ones already sold.
Personally I don't like this policy and that's why I hope d2sun will come out with an alternative solution.
