Is there anyone working on fixing the HDD situation with the PSX DVR?

According to old threads on the AssemblerGames archives and a post on Geocities, the DVRP contains the authentication check to see if the connected HDD is a Sony drive. If this can be cracked, this means we can trick the console into thinking a genuine Sony drive is connected when in reality, a non-Sony drive is connected.

I lack the skills for this so I'm unable to do it myself. Is there anyone actively working on a fix for this? It's been nearly 17 years since its release and it is still not cracked.

If I had one I'd work on it lol, not sure on if there is a way to emulate something like that now? That would help people figure that out fast!
