Hacking Hard drives

[Phratt]

I wanted to know, if it was possible to take an internal hard drive from a compute and use it as a loader.

If not (which it probably is), could I connect the Wii to the computer itself and use the computer as a loader?

Yup, with a USB2.0 to SATA Bridge Adapter it should work...although you have to take the HD out of the PC, maybe partitionate and format it...so it's pretty unusable for the PC anymore (or do you want to take in/out the HD everytime you need it

?).
Confirmed in the Wiki...

NO! Only with FlatMii.

Yes to both. To the second, you'll have to buy a flatmii.

Do you think you can supply me with a step by step tutorial on how to take out my HD and format it?

Lol, yeah that makes sense. But Anyways, I was looking through the Wiki and I noticed that ipods DO actually work.

So does anyone know if Ipod Photo's work?

4th generation and 20 Gig.
