Anyway, don't believe it (yet) since I did NOT saw any GAME booted. Could be fake homebrew.
EDIT: Didn't read the store part. I agree with ^, a display Wii should be analyzed by a hacking team. We'll see what's possible with the normal Wii then.

for the 80 BILLIONTH TIME. USB 2.0 is faster then a drive speed of 6x

3x is already achieved.
Wii has 1.1 USB slots, not 2.0 so the drive speed would be even slower.

I don't see any reason to suggest a fake, we already have one source from the Children's Hopital (the like I already supplied) and the newer video which has some game variations. ie Updated Madden and no Hannah Montana on the store console.
I just delete the cross-line text of my reply, since I DO believe it's real but I just saw it in a wrong way and ppl are understanding me wrong.
I thought the guy had created the menu himself, but he didn't. I seemed (Seemed, not seems) odd to me that a HDD loader could already have such an awesome menu so that's why I thought it was a fake vid.

All sources I have seen indicate USB 2.0 so I put the burden of proof that it uses USB1.1 on you.

Sorry, I did not see that until after posting my reply.

you are right about that, but the speed i software limited, cause the USB ports are in fact 2.0 working on 1.1
turkish_punch said:Who is software limiting? Nintendo or Homebrew developers... I will have to do a Internet Speed test through the datel ethernet adaptor; I don't use nor trust wifi. Anything over 100KB\s would indicate that USB2.0 is software and hardware enabled through the Opera Channel.
HowardC said:The stock wii running a hdd menu is in the Nintendo Store in NYC and it's sister store in Japan. That is the ONLY two that exist. The others are another (crappier) proprietary system.
So get the idea of someone dumping the software/hardware to this device out of your head. It ain't gonna happen in the lifespan of the wii.
