Im glad someone understands that but it isnt hard to swap hdds especially if you just leave the screws off. Think of it like switching an old nintendo cartridge :P

if anyone was able to do the hardware design or even solder that well, chances our they are open to modifying their case / hard drive case to fit 2 drives in and a switch for them + padding :P it's possible and can be done though. I am interested on where he got those nor mounts though, might be doing a project for them and nands later on

Could they enable use of an external hdd for for cfw and internal for ofw?
This is not something I have looked into or anything, just thinking.

Part of it is. And say you have one 3.55 nor and another 3.66 nor it would require you to switch HDDs. I figured you would know that.
