Drivekey
It's good and really easy to install on your wii.
It's kinda pricey
but if you want something cheap, then definitely wiikey2
but kinda hard to install.

Btw drivekey is solderness

I always recommend the D2Pro, its probably the best one out there. The DriveKey is really good too.

 

[OzModChips]

it depends on your wii serial number

wiikey v2 is you dont have epoxy/d3

drivkey if you do

Whats the start of your wii serial number

example

lah1045

I would suggest a drivekey. Easy to install and easy to remove if neccessary.

Is it really nessessary? To open up your Wii and risk breaking it? When you can use softmods which do the same stuff i think, USB loaders have region free patches, backup loaders, Waninkoko has a hack which means the disk channel can play back ups. Is there something a mod chip can do that the homebrew hacks cannot?

not really i think, i have a modchip for over a year now, but i softmodded another wii, and i dont see any advantages, except for shorter loading times in ssbb

and now that i tried the usb loader, i see no reason to buy a modchip, because usb is much better...


EDIT: 400 posts

i think flatmii 125 is also a good chip since you can also stream iso´s form you´re pc

My advice is to save the money you plan to spend on the Mod chip and invest in a USB drive and usb load. Much safer IMO and less waranty voiding as you can delete the homebrew channel and most of the other things you install.

Sorry about this old thread bump, but where is a good site to order a USB WII drive?(or whatever you said)

I think he was referring to a usb flash/thumb drive and a usb loader for Wii (softmod, not a modchip).
