Judging by the small number of wires routed to the switch... I would guess he has disabled the on-board NAND chip, connected both new NANDs to the same points, and uses the switch to select between them (either with the power input or a "cable select"-type pin. How it works in software will obviously not be revealed without further details.

It might be possible some day, but not yet.

Hot glue FTW.

It's ugly, but now that it's done, and the fact that it is something that can be made into a product, I expect the Wiikey guys or Team Xecuter to create a dual boot mod chip for the market.If they are smart, they'll already have something working in the next few days, and get this thing to market within a month or two - particularly since Sony is pushing hard to bring the PS4 out - if they want to make some real money.Hopefully, they will use the vast experience gleaned from years of these sorts of mods, and make it as painless as possible to install.

I Was Thinking The Other Day About All This Dual Nand Business And There Was 2 Things That Bother Me

1) Were Do We Get A Second Nand Chip
2) If For Example You Install 3.55 On The First Chip Then Switch Over To The Second Chip And Install 3.66 For Example, When You Switch Back To The First Chip Wouldnt It Say HDD Data Corrupt Because The 3.66 Install Would Overwrite The Files With 3.66 Ones

If Thats The Case Then I Thought You Could Make A CFW Using MFW Builder And Get It To Put All The Data It Installs On The HDD To A Custom Folder Instead Of The Root Of The HDD Then When You Install 3.66 That Data Will Be Installed On The Root And Nothing Will Effect The 3.55 Install Plus It Will Make Sure Your Saves, Trophies ect Are Separate Or Am I Over Thinking This..
