    Ok I'm going to soft mod my cube using the sd media launcher, what I am questioning is with the sketchy will work, wont work feedback of mini-dvd's (I can get verb mmc and ritek g04 mini-dvd) would it be better to get a case mod for my cube (the one from console plus isn't viper) and mod it to allow full size dvd-r which I Can get easier and cheaper (already have loads of verb mmc dvd-rs) I hear that the full size ones are better overall quality and work more often than not?

    Some feedback would be appreciated :)

    the g04's should work fine, but the thing is that i think it's just easier getting a case mod (you may also save money overall depending on how many games you backup). cases are VERY easy to install. getting the original off without a gamebit is a different story...
    full-size discs are used more often for multiple reasons, so i believe their overall quality would be above mini-dvd's since minis are less utilitarian. i'm using full-sized $ony 8x DVD-R's right now [don't know the id...], and everything's working fine. i actually don't have a case right now, just an opened cube with a paper clip for the open/close sensor. also, i'm using sdload instead of sd media launcher because i already have an action replay and would rather not pay for another...
