The installation procedure for D2Pro is significantly faster then previous 28-wire chips, you will find install times for the D2Pro to be reduced dramatically to around 50% of the time it would take for the 28 wire chips. We feel confident in saying you will see the same stability from the D2Pro as you have come to expect from the 28 wire solutions such as the D2C mod chip, if not better because of the fact that the firmware will be upgradeable, the D2Pro is really rock solid!
D2Pro was made with user simplicity at heart. After installation, it will function without you having to do anything extra to setup the chip. There is no need for config disks or any messing around, the only thing you may wish to do is update the firmware when a new version is released. D2Pro will automatically detect which type of media has been inserted and configures the drive accordingly. Original and backup Wii and GC games from different regions will boot directly, and even a lot of games from regions with different video system can be booted directly. Gamecube audio streaming fix is built in as well.
The D2Pro has an operating bandwidth of 350Mhz, which is extremely good when compared with around 8MHz for serial port based mod chips. D2Pro uses an Actel flash-based FPGA IC, which has many powerful features amongst being one of the worlds most reliable & stable IC’s. It has an ultra fast clock speed and an incredibly low core power consumption of just 1.5V, this will literally mean the core will remain cool all the times. This in turn leads to less strain on your Wii, and no need for added cooling options. Another added hardware feature that has been added for stability is a Crystal on the PCB, something no other Wii chip has done to date.
Please note this mod chip is for D2C chip set Wii consoles only with a serial number between LEH1356xxxx and LEH179xxxx. If your serial number is above LEH180xxxxx then you require the new Wasabi V2. If you are unsure of your Wii chipset please refer to the guide on our support page or email us your serial number and we will advise on the most suitable chip for your Wii.
