For K-chassis/SCPH-700XX-consoles, the components of the Network Adapter were simply soldered directly to the motherboard, thus making it possible to directly solder wires to the ATA/IDE pins of [[SPEED]] and connect an external hard drive that way (power to the hard drive must be provided externally). While possible, this is obviously not practical.</br> | For K-chassis/SCPH-700XX-consoles, the components of the Network Adapter were simply soldered directly to the motherboard, thus making it possible to directly solder wires to the ATA/IDE pins of [[SPEED]] and connect an external hard drive that way (power to the hard drive must be provided externally).

Additionaly, North American K-chassis consoles (SCPH-70011 and SCPH-70012) also have a small daughter board with a 56k modem, just like the North American SCPH-10281 Network Adaptor. The difference between SCPH-70011 and SCPH-70012 lies within the daughter board, with the SCPH-70011 daughter board (J20M001.30) being compliant with both, Canadian and US regulations, and the SCPH-70012 daughter board (J20M001.32) being compliant with just the US regulations. | Additionaly, North American K-chassis consoles (SCPH-70011 and SCPH-70012) also have a small daughter board with a 56k modem, just like the North American SCPH-10281 Network Adaptor.

On later consoles (L-chassis/SCPH-750XX and later), the functionality of SPEED was integrated into the [[IOP]] with the ATA/IDE interface being dropped entirely, thus making it impossible to connect a hard drive no matter what. | On later consoles (L-chassis/SCPH-750XX and later), the functionality of SPEED was integrated into the [[IOP]] with the ATA/IDE interface being dropped entirely, thus making it impossible to connect a hard drive no matter what. | ||
