I thought I should start a new topic on this incase anyone was also interested in this option and wanted info. I haven't even shot footage yet because I'm waiting on parts to come in. Hopefully it gets up and running and proves to be as great as it's promised. Right now I have been hunting around for a few weeks for parts, I have found a few deals on all the parts so I had a little gauge on what the 'street value' was on the components. It certainly is no $800 Hyperdeck package (yes it's ~ $800 with all the parts), but it looks like a good deal on a SRR1 seems to have settled around the 3k mark with 1 drive included and this is comparable.

So Far my costs for all the components:
Codex Arriraw M Recorder - Ebay auction $520 - This is the version made for D-21 and Alexa, only difference is the side design is slightly altered and on it is printed 'Arriraw'. The lighter grey material actually matches the F35.
Codex F35 Interface Plate - BandPro used item $750 - They actually have a large stock of Codex M recorders, they had a few used F35/23 Interface plates for sale.
Codex Remote Control - Old show unit from Codex $300 - Codex had some parts still in stock for the F35, they did not have any F35 plates and would be looking into using one.
Codex set of 256gb drives - Ebay Buy It Now $499 - seems to be the going 'dirt cheap' rate for these drives are $250 per 256gb.
Codex License for F35 - here's the catch, because it's an Arriraw recorder, the previous owner only ever bought the Arri codecs, the Retail price of these licenses : $3000, what they were willing to give to me: $750.
Total Buy in so far : $2820
Not cheap but if we compare the value of the F35, it's about right. We are talking about unlocking the features of the camera.
I must say dealing with Codex so far has shown incredible customer support. I explained that I wasn't a rental house, just an individual who had tracked down an older rare camera, and they have been very helpful. I'm sure like the F35, there is little reason to keep supporting these products, but they care enough about there product and company image to give out the same outstanding support that they give to the people who buy $80,000 products from them. They emailed me on a sunday! Who does that for their customers?
So hopefully I'll get it all together and working without too many problems. From what I've read and a few round about answers from Codex, I am fairly certain I can transfer footage through the ethernet on the unit, this is another biggie I am relying on to not spend more $$ right now. Once i get everything up and running I will shoot some good images onto the Hyperdeck and Codex at the same time and then post for comparison:
422 10bit vs 444 12 bit. Only reasonable way to test 12 bit is to shoot dual system and compare the same exact images in each format.

Keep in mind that the video transfer will be in real time. One hour of video = one hour of capture time.
