HDD MOD: start
« on: May 23, 2008, 09:02:30 PM »
Everyone seems to be interested in a HDD mod so i wanna do one and need some support or a team
originally me and gameking21 were going to do it but we ended up just stoping idk why

The idea

to get the neo 4in1 or 2in1 if u order 10 of them u get them for cheap
http://www.ic2005.com/shop/product.php?productid=31&cat=7&bestseller=Y
http://www.ic2005.com/shop/product.php?productid=25&cat=9&page=1

open it up and check the size of the main board and remove the 4gb max. on
the neo make it internal and relocate the memory card slots

Wat i need

$$$$$ MONEY $$$$$
Help and partner in crime lol

ya he probably won't help but idk

well i was thinking to use this so we don't cripple the original ms slot http://www.bepsp.com/Parallel_MS__MOD.html

vox also brought to my attention that we could just do this mod https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=14584.0 and add a sd to cf converter but idk bout the speed if it was slow just using sd imagine with the convereter but i found this which could possibly help http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12177

If there is a xilinx chip that controls the entire thing I can dump the programming out of it and you can then build them yourself.

what he means is if u know pvp hes not the one to ask 4 help....... not be cause he dosent know because he works on his projects that he wants to do when he wants to do it by him self just the way he works. what gr8npwrfl is saying try and see if they have a pic that govens logic of device he can extract it and tell you how it works and maybe remove 4 gig cap if its caped by software and im not shure but im pretty shure the limit the ms slot can read is 32gb. this is good idea but its been perfected i think by useing sd cards instead as they run iso at normal speed G.O.W plays fine on my sd card plus the pcb for it is way smaller.

that is very true the sd mod is much smaller i guess i was just trying to be original and think of something to do this summer but i am probably going to scratch this there isn't enough interest

i think you should see about emulateing an entire nslu2 in a high powered pic and run the alternate firmware on it to make a usb host chip

Dude, I doubt your going to be able to emulate a Nslu2 on a high powered PIC. If you can find me a powerful enough PIC, I'll believe you

It would be extremely hard to find a PIC powerful enough, and if you did, you be looking at a very big price tag

well lots of pic and clpd and what not seem to be powerfull enoughf to replace the nslu2 but the problem seems to be this network processor the Intel IXP42x is the brains of nslu2. idk much about programing but seems to me you could make a pcb with  32 MB RAM 8 MB flash and the NP on it and a couple caps and simple circuts to make a nslu2 with no extra features from an engenering stand point. but geting the firmware to run on the (nslu3) without all the componets will be hard prob have to write a new one.

basicly im saying design a new nslu2 with only absoloutly nessacary hardware for  it to read hdd and send data to psp but getting the software ready is the hard part if u can take the alternate firmware edit it to only core functions and core hardware used. building device is esay just the intel NP, ram and flash memory and a cpu probaby to replace most the board
