Tramite una mail inviata dal Team di sviluppo del 3K3y, l’ODE per PS3, siamo venuti a conoscenza che il dispositivo stà per essere immesso nel mercato e quindi tra non molto potremo (se vorremo) metterci le mani sopra.

3KEY-TH

La “data” ipotetica dichiarata è il capodanno Cinese. Vi starete chiedendo …

quando cade il capodanno Cinese, il 10 Febbraio.

Per essere precisi il Team, sempre nella mail, ha affermato che potremo acquistarlo prima del Capodanno Cinese, ma per comodità prendiamo il 10 Febbraio come riferimento.

Questa la mail ufficiale inviata dal Team del 3K3y:

Order now and get your stock before the Chinese New Year! 

3k3y is the state of the art of PS3 drive emulation from the de facto leaders in drive emulation.

Products developed by our team members, such as Xk3y, Wode, and Wiikey Fusion have outsold products in direct competition by a factor. The same thing goes for many of our other products such as Qoob and Wiikey. 

The question many people are asking about it compatibility with various firmwares and PS3 models. Let us state the facts here, which are true for 3k3y as well as any other PS3 ODE: 

Key extraction
Currently a firmware <= 3.55 is required for drive key extraction. We are very close to completing a relatively user friendly hardware method for extracting keys from PS3’s on any firmware. Until we have it working in a commercial environment we will not promote this as a feature, even though it is very likely to happen in the immediate future. 

As of now there are no PS3 ODEs that works with a PS3 that cannot be put on 3.55 firmware for key dumping. Period.

Compatible models
3k3y was developed for the fat ps3, which is supported out of the box. Now when the hardware is finished we will start working on adapter boards for the Slim models which do not have the drive controller integrated on the motherboard. 
Once that is done we will look into whether is it possible to make an adapter board for the Slims with integrated controller that can be installed with a reasonable effort.

Super Slim
Due to the size constraints and different interface (SATA instead of PATA) we have developed a super small sexy hardware especially for the Super Slim model. Final testing and release will commence once we have hardware key extraction working.

ISO file format
3k3y, as well as any other sane ODE uses a full ISO file. Scene releases were in this format up until the jailbreak dongle came along. Currently it is more popular to release the decrypted file system, as it may be smaller than a full ISO. However, decrypted file system backups lacks essential data necessary to emulate the disk properly and are very easy for Sony to detect on PSN. In fact Sony has made a public statement warning PSN users about this. 
We are currently looking into the possibility of creating software to recreate the ISO from decrypted dumps, but this is WIP.

Game Ripping
This is an essential feature as the full ISO is needed. We have high speed hardware that connects to Mac or PC and dumps a full size ISO in no time. Its right here and now. 

An upcoming firmware for 3k3y will include in-system disk ripping, but disk ripping with 3k3y or any other ODE will be extremely slow compared to using our dedicated hardware.
To avoid delays and missing out on sales please contact us ASAP. Both 3k3y and Xk3y are time consuming and labor intensive to manufacture. We need timely forecasts to avoid disappointments.

Questi i passaggi che ci interessano:

  • Il prezzo sara più o meno 70$.
  • L’estrazioni delle chiavi per adesso è effettuabile solo da FW < 3.55, ma un metodo hardware per i FW 3.55 > è in via di sviluppo.
  • Per le ps3 Super Slim dato le dimensioni ridotte è stato prodotto un 3k3Y in versione ridotto che verra lanciato quando l’estrazione delle chiavi sara possibile anche da FW 3.55 >.
  • 3K3Y è stato sviluppato esclusivamente per le FAT (quindi piena compatibilità per le FAT già dal lancio del prodotto), per le SLIM, che non hanno il controllo del disco integrato della scheda madre, stanno pensando di creare degli adattatori
  • Possibilita di aggiornare a qualsiasi FW sony dopo l’estrazione delle chiavi

Non ci resta che attendere ulteriori dettagli su questo nuovo 3K3y per PS3.
