With soft moding does it really matter what type of drive I get. As long as its on the posted list? I was reading some of the comments and they were talking about chips and only getting half the storage.

truthfully most of the drives that "dont work" its only cause they cant be locked, and thus if you have a modchip ANY drive should work, because yo ucan boot into an unlocked HDD

but if yo uget one of the recommended list youre safe from every angle, with any modchip

the problem with the laptop is the hdd cant be locked
also it would be harder to veiw the contents of the drive (if its even possible)

IF it can work, the hardrive in your laptop would have to be IDE Channel 1 MASTER
and your CD\DVD drive would have to be secondary Master
and you would have to use a converter like this
but this is a hard thing to make fit in a laptop, and that doesnt garuntee it will work

but thats what would have to happen

(PS zzk doesnt know anything Tongue Jk Wink )

Whats a IDE Channel 1 MASTER Huh

im sorry, but if you have to ask that then there is no way you can pull this off
not being offencive, but it requires some deal of skill (not saying it even IS possible) to even attempt this

points....

you cant use anything external
you need access to a Primary Master IDE port

if you dont have a PC, you wont be able to do this upgrade
find a pc yo ucan borrow\use and i can help you out no problem

lol you speak of zzk like a god
its easier if you think of him like you or i
he didnt make any of this stuff up, he just took the time to show people, and write those tuts.... and make videos.....

ok so he is a god lol

anyway, you dont even need an OS on the harddrive, it just needs to have a cd drive in it, so just look for a working computer basically
