145w ago - Update: Team Jungle and C4E have now joined Team Hades to assist with their ongoing research to hack the PS3 entertainment system!

A few weeks back we first reported news of a PS3 Blu-ray 302R drive being successfully connected to a PC by DemonHades and examined by JaicraB, and today Team Hades reports that Calimba has managed to do it with a newer PlayStation 3 Blu-ray 304R drive as well.

To quote from their PlayStation 3 hacking progress update, roughly translated from Spanish to English:

"Well, I just woke up with this news, our mail Calimba has managed to connect the 304R model is one of the newest, and also ensures better to connect the PS3 Slim.

The way forward has been entirely empirical, so we do not try it because it does not show any information on the Internet.

Moreover, the good news is we already know to extract and decrypt the FW. I think that people who criticized us so much, it's time to bend the ears, and finally admit what this team and this website are doing for the scene...

Thanks to the people to trust us and all members of the TEAM HADES, without them this would not be possible."

Finally, props to humi for passing along the news!

there is a new blog on the demonhades site:

Hey guys, this morning when, and returned to spend the day at the beach and found me with the cover saying that the study we were doing the other night Calimba, me, and violent TeamHades kain of getting paid off to connect the new model of reader slim to pc, the difference lies in two things

1. We do not have any information of such services sony manuals

2. The connection varies, and that of fat using the ide ata .. while using the sata slim.

Above the line citing that already knows how to extract the decrypt fw as I can not say anything because now I'm like you, because I have not engaged in conversation with Calimba to know more about it .. although I can make a small idea making mention of the protocols designed to perform various attacks or studies on it.

so I ask a little patience until you speak with him and explain to me more or less the situation

Congratulations guys. You are doing amazing things, and in ways this community can be proud of, unlike geohots methods.

I look forward to future updates, especially about the FW, as it does indeed seem more challenging that the 360, and I love a good challenge! Keep up the good work!
