Hacking Is my Wii backup-friendly?

[Maxime Belleai]

Hi, I want to buy a Wii that can play Backup DVDs and I'm kind of confused with everything I read.
Serial number of one I found is LU1361, the Wii Drive Chip Database telle me that there's :
Your drive most likely has the following chipset:

• There is a 25% chance the chipset is GC2R-D2A.
• And there is also a 25% chance the chipset is GC2-D2C (v1).
• And a 25% chance the chipset is GC2-D4 on a smaller drive board.
• Lastly, a 25% chance the chipset is GC2-D3-2 (v2) with no drive chip.

Wich one of these is backup friendly?
I have a black Wii softmodded and play games via external HDD, but I want one to play backups too.

Thanks!

Why ? It's slow and annoying.

Is it really that bad? Cause I have a collection of burned games with custom cases and artwork and just wanna try it.

Burned games load at half the speed of official discs. Meanwhile USB-loaded games load faster than either of those two options.

What are burned games?

That's an interesting fun fact. I love USB Loading.

USB loading is considered environment friendly. Think about the trees.
