Product Info
* It's the first chip that works on all drives, from DMS to latest D2C drives (including GC2-D1A).
* It's the first D2C compatible chip that is upgradable from DVD.
* It's the easiest chip to install on D2C: only 9 wires, only 3 of them connected to a pin/via.
* It's the easiest chip to install on DMS and D2B as well: No need to use a dremel or super-glue with "cut-pin" drives, and there's no pin/via to solder even with the latest D2B boards.
* It's the first D2C compatible chip that is as clean as DMS/D2B drivechips: full control over the drive's firmware, no physical patching on the lines while the games are running. That means perfect stability, more control, and no stress on the drive's components.
* Best of all, it's the first chip to include a decent amount of flash memory (128KB) for firmware and data storage.[/quote]
