The Wasabi boasted of an impressive repertoire of features, but could they live up to it?
At the moment, no. A lot of people who went for the chip are experiencing that it does not work properly.

I have personally tried to install 2 of these chips and both times I experienced issues with the drive of the Wii not starting the first time, and the light of the chip staying red, until you reset the Wii a couple of times which is very annoying.
Resetting the chip by connecting the ground wire with the K wire seems to help the chip start. But that is in my opinion a crappy solution because, you need to connect a switch and route it from the drive board and out of the Wii casing so you can access it when you need to.
as of now the Wasabi team has not addressed the problem and time will tell if they ever will and/or there ever will be a solution or not. I fear that the problem not can be resolved with an firmware upgrade but lies within the Wasabi Hardware.
:(

mine acts like its working but the only backup disc it will read is the upgrade disc. the offical discs work fine but it never wil boot backups. is there another firmware besides the Upgrade DVD on the wasabi website?
what type of media do you use? i have tried some cheap disc and it will only eat DVD -R when i tried more expensive like Verbatim it could read DVD +R. so it could be a media issues.
