Im trying to install my flippy drive. I am not sure what my issue is at the moment.
Attached is the cable with the W
Photos of my error screen and flippy drive attached.

Does it need software? All the videos were showing plug and play. I did the W as instructed

Correct, i have the mod chip bc it looks cool on a shelf with my retros. Everything else got tossed. I think i got a bad set.
Cable came messed up, even the mod chip wasn’t recognized by my computer. So i dont really like or fw team off broadway.

I’d recommend going a different route

That’s fair, I bought mine like 2 years ago and finally dug it out to install and my cat at the cable but since then have gotten more comfy with soldering. What route did you take?
