Which downgrade dongle?

Hi, I have been following ps3hax for some time and have decided to downgrade my ps3

I need some advice on which downgrade dongle to use

PS3 SKU: CECHH phat
Using E3 Flasher
Firmware: 4.00

Its seems like e3 card reader are out of stock.
Also is there a size guideline for tf /SD

Any reply is much appreciated!
Thanks ps3hax

(I did a search however I needed some confirmation as I'm using a phat)

Fat or slims make no difference.
To be honest, dongles are pretty much obsolete with the option of using many devices like phones/mp3 players/psp etc to do the same job

You only need the device to initiate the actual downgrade and then the data is read from a flash drive

Sweet I was afraid using another device might have a higher chance of brick
So my rooted android is as easy as any dongle?

Ah so those posts which says e3.reader for.phat and PS jb slim are just a hoax?

Guys pardon me for these silly questions
I really hope my first time to be successful.
And thanks for all the awesome reply!

Nevertheless I'll still need a tf/SD in the e3 flasher right?
Is there a size recommendation? 4gb?

Also which downgrade should I use using an android?
