Update to my formatting, it seems my drive is not hacked, even tho the player tools gave me 2 popups that no drive was found and i could not enter/change the encryption page, the low level format which took over an hour went ok (see image below) i also moved about 1.9gb of music to the device and copied it back without a hitch. Now lets hope a firmware extractor will be out soon and maybe some handy utils like the ones for s1 players, to get my board info and other info without opening it. The only issues left are the not working of the usb driver and an unplayable game (which more people have i see) i can live with that for now, but i'd like to mod the player when it is possible 8)
