Important Compatibility Notes
Region suffixes (01 / 02 / 03 / 04) do not affect motherboard compatibility — only the 40xx / 42xx prefix matters.
The motherboard’s Blu‑ray region is tied to the region it was originally sold in.
Must be paired with the correct Super Slim PSU (APS‑330 or ADP‑160AR).
Works with the KEM‑850PHA laser deck used in CECH‑40xx/42xx units.
