of course there is no DRE...the design has been throughly tested and confirmed 100% correct
you think i would try sell something that didnt work or could possibly introduce errors or crash?

at what point? during design phase or after final design?
during design phase:
if you bothered to design one yourself you would know the problems...
if you bothered to read Ashen's discovery thread, you would know all the problems he faced and learned how to avoid those same problem within a pcb design
after final design: no problems ever

PD: In the prototype you can see Cubdax-EOL. In the final version will see elotrolado.net-gcforever.com
why do you feel so compelled to tag your username on the reversed boards?
If your gonna put anyones name, you should put Ashen's name on there since he was the one who made this discovery and openly and freely documented all the pinouts to create this type of board...hell, he even helped me to understand a few vital design areas to make this board possible....
by the way, i sent every design to emu_kidid for review and approval to ensure he was 100% satisfied with the design, quality, and proposed final look of the boards since they would have his site "gc-forever" on them...so before you decide to put "gc-forever" on your boards, at least show some respect and make sure you get permission/approval from emu_kidid...
oh and another thing, when i sent this design to be professionally made i even added and paid for board space to create a simple little forum themed key chain dongle as a method of creating a fund raiser for this site...
let me say that another way..
i paid to create something to "give" to members who wish to donate to this site...
my way to show respect to this forum, its members and to emu_kidid to help his keep this forum going...
as for the bottom mount design...
i understand the feeling about creating something for people who
do not want to use the dvd drive...
or think they will never have any use for the drive ever again...
that was my original idea and direction...
as i thought about it more and more, i also considered the idea of
LONG TERM USE...
its very easy to create a quick solution to get a drive replacement modchip connected to the GC....
but i chose to create a design which will include 100% compatibility for using the dvd drive and the WKF/WODE at the same time...
not a design that will require the user to remove their WKF/WODE just to reinstall their dvd player to create a cleanrip dump, or play an audiostreaming title the way it was ment to be, or for those who also want to play with GC linux dvd, or for those who want to dust off a disc 20yrs from now to play via dvd to show their kids this old technology... etc etc etc
(non-portablilizers) ....for those who think they will never need a dvd drive ever again, then go ahead and remove the drive port and also throw your dvd drive in the trash...
after all, why leave the drive port connected?? you dont need it, right? you are so certain you will never need the dvd drive ever again right??
heh, unless the only thing stopping you from removing the port or throwing the drive in the trash is because you may feel the need to use the dvd drive again one day...
...and my answer for that is the Drive Insert...so feel free to remove the dvd port knowing you will always keep full functionality, backwards compatibility, (future forwards compatibility) or use a wii dvd drive instead
maybe im more sentimental when it comes to designing something for GC...but if your gonna do it, then do it once and do it right
