Need help with GameCube portable disk drive help appreciated

Post by Naz132 » Tue Jul 29, 2014 3:25 pm

Hello everyone. I am making another game cube portable but need help as i am making one with the disk drive instead of a wii key. I know how to do everything else as i have made one before. But i have never made one with a disk drive. If anyone can share some information on how to do this it would be much appreciated.
I have been looking at this method --> http://forums.benheck.com/viewtopic.php?t=33728
which looks very simple but tips and steps on how to do it as i cant really find information on how to do it would be amazing.
Thank you.

one thing at a time...
remove the drive and wire it up to the GC...test to make sure it works....


then remove the driveboard and extend one FFC cable...test to make sure it works
then the other FFC cable...test to make sure it works...


other than that, everything else is in the post with pics of how to do it...

Oh that's pretty simple. Is there a guide or diagram to connect the disk drive board to the GameCube board? So all i have to do it wire the disk drive board to the GameCube board? Just that one connector? Any specific type of wire i need? Thanks for the reply.
