After Email chatting with the Guys at shop01media and offering a few suggestions what to get in stock.....


I've been just been informed that  they are now stocking some new products including a cheap 2.5" Hard disk enclosure  (Wii games launching from HD is the 'IN' thing to do now so this is an ideal product to build your own if you have that spare sata hd kicking about :)

QuotePerfect for external, movable storage / backup.
# For SATA 2.5" hard drives
# Plug and Play
# No external power supply needed
# Stable and quick
# Large storage support
# Elegant design

Some pictures ...









price is  Price £11,69/(€12,99)/($16,56)  which isn't a bad price they even throw in the screwdriver and a pouch cover! :)


They are now even stocking OEM Gamecube controllers for those die hard Virtual console lovers and those that want one to use with bootmii instead of the consoles buttons :ha:

DX takes 2 weeks to a month sometimes longer and with shop01media (in Poland) a week or less to the UK and even faster if you choose priority shipping :)


At the end of the day its down to the individual where you want to buy from and how long you want to wait :)


@ Devs nope no deal with them  ...... I was asked to review 4 items for being a loyal customer  (I've bought loads of stuff mainly flash cards from them) ... which the reviews I've now done ......


I just listened to what people wanted and gave them (shop01) a few suggestions and ideas what they could get in stock a while back and they finally got them in this week :)

Europe hasn't really got a reliable retailer afaik for flash cards and mod chips etc (ebay dont allow it and neither does amazon now) .. Good UK retailers are far and few between for same sort of modding/flash card stuff) ... whereas USA and China/Hong Kong etc have loads of places with dirt cheap prices but take forever to get the orders too you :(

This is when I found Shop01 (I bought my first superkey and supercard slot2 rumble cards from them along with my first R4 (still have it) TTDS cards when the NEO team released their OEM version and a load more cards and hardware etc ;)

I Also buy from DX myself but often get fed up of the waiting so buy from shop01 or elsewhere just to get stuff faster! :)

QuoteI was asked to review 4 items for being a loyal customer

i would hardly call it a review it looks more like an advert to me
it looks like you just took the pictures & cut & pasted the details of the site

I'll bear them in mind if Dx are out of stock but if I order in stock stuff I usually get it in a Week to UK

Where are shop01 based then ? they're website is down at the mo.

@dai site works just slow loading they are trying to update the servers

@jmr I used the pictures from their site but rehosted them on raid pic and quoted a little of the description free free to remove it if you think its crossing the advertisement line I have no problems with that and I'm sure shop01 will not mind either ... they did not ask me to post the link I just thought I would post it as most people who have modded their wii's lately are looking to use hd loaders and making your own from a spare hd is a cheaper option for some people :)
