As long as the device isnt completely "bricked" then you can reset your device but you will losr you music db and tracks. We have not known units to be bricked by this beta but you do run that risk!
SSD install has been done before and uses standard connectors so you shouldn't nred a schematic. For the moment I would have to refer you to the old forum (link in the history page)

Where did you find this info? was it on our old forums, and if so please can you supply a link?
I had a look for it myself to help you out, but the old forum's search function doesn't work

Actually you can manually install any firmware version without having to reset the device to factory defaults (which loses your library and tracks). However if there was a database upgrade between the two versions you are switching, the database may not be left in a valid state after having put a later firmware down. As the Pacemaker team couldn't provide any info on database upgrades, we made PMUpdater purposely not allow downgrades.
However I successfully manually downgrade from an earlier beta release back to 14142 with no problems

When downgrading I changed the version of the firmware in the XML file to a lower figure than the firmware version I wanted to install. I switched to the last official firmware because I wanted to check that my hardware was ok, then I used the firmware installer to install the latest firmware again, no issues at all.
