But seriously, the chances of bricking are really low, as long as you set it up correctly. |

However, given that there is still a very, very slight risk that something might go awry, if your PSP means everything to you and without it you feel like you might die, I wouldn't suggest it.
Tampering with your PSP is always your responsibility, and no one elses. You decide if it's worth the risk, even if there's only a 0.01% the "bad" may happen. |
