yeah, as long as it kills true blue (assuming its NOT trueblue)

will you have to use a specific drive for this / hopefully it wont cost a ton of money :/

Anything is better than TurdBlue... especially this method (but not for homebrew).. unless this is ScrewBlue's next product.

I freaking hope it hurts them.

Digital copy only is asking for trouble (didn't get a PSP go for that reason) who are they to say what machine I play my purchased games on.

yes no cheat enabler, but do you really need a cheat enabler to modify the games content LOL just mod the files.

nice point on the longer laser life oozic

My gut instinct tells me this is the same people who made TB. If you thought $60 was expensive for a warez solution, wait till you see the price on this thing...

Also, I happen to like having CFW running on my machine, you'd still need to update to the latest OFW to run new games, although you could do so without actually buying them. I guess you get PSN if you're so inclined. Meh.

It doesn't interact with the firmware(which is the magic of it) directly.
However, how you select what BR to emulate.. That i do not know.

i have to say it :this is fake!!
you can notice that the slim ps3 is using a female usb port (that supposed to be coming from the modship) to be used with usb hdd
and the phat ps3 is using sata port to be connected to the modship
now the big question is : it is realy hard to convert usb to sata ?? (of course not!!)
then why they have to make two modships one for slim(using usb hdd)& another for phat(usin sata hdd) ???
because simply its fake looL

Let it be wasabi or some other team not those guys again :S

same here for me this is meh, but it least its not TB (at least not that we know of)

I wonder how this exactly works...

Are they taking the Blu-Ray drive ribbon and converting it to SATA, then hooking that into their chip, or are they just going from the PS3's SATA to their chip which emulates a PS3 BR drive and runs the HDD.

If it's the later than I wonder if this could work without using any proprietary hardware. Perhaps run an extender from the PS3's SATA to a PC and run the emulator from there?

Also brings up the question of if you can have multiple games on one HDD, I mean you can't run multiple Blu-Ray discs from one Blu-Ray drive without changing the source..
So how would that work, either having only one game on the HDD at a time, or having the emulator mount multiple ISOs and having the PS3 showing multiple 'discs' at the same time.

Why do people keep referring to the Photo's saying "Fake"

They are just LIBRARY pictures to give an idea of how it MAY look.

[Asure]

Indeed. Some default pics.

Pic #1 is just a USB disk connected to PS3 (and the female USB is probably just for drawing/tapping more amps to the hdd's +5v)
Pic #2 is just a IDE to SATA converter, the disk is an IDE disk. (and some 'external' hdd mod to use a 3.5" hdd instead of 'expensive' 2.5" hdd with the ps3.)
