D3-2: New unmoddable Wii drive!

[wraggster]

From the better late than never department. I stumbled across this forum post (two weeks old) over at wiinewz.com about a new Wii drive (aka D3-2) which looks like D3 (aka D2nothing) but where both hard (modchips) and soft backup methods fail (yes, this includes softmods as well). Several installers have confirmed the new drive in Canada, Netherlands and Korea so far. Apparently the D3-2 drive looks exactly like the D3, only serial numbers differ."

Ya so what's a D2/D3 anyhow? It's Wii related apparently...

It is related to the wii, basically there are several Wii Dvd drive revisions and there are some like D2C etc they are named off Chipset this one is a new revision of D3C i think and it blocks modchips and soft mods.

They tried to block modchips with a black resin proxy on the chips before but it didn't work so i wonder what they did now.

Hmm... Interesting. I wonder how long it will take for this to be "fixed" by teh haxorz.
