The most important reason for modifying the Wii is to run backups of games and homebrew.  The method for soft-mudding will allow you to do both immaculately.  Currently no restrictions in the side of homebrew exist to those who choose to softmod Wii rather than hardmod.  Nintendo game backups alter slightly between hardmods and soft-mods.  Users of the hard-mod have a 6x access speed to discs while Wii softmod users are currently limited to 3x.  This basically means that users of soft-mods that play multi-disc games may experience some slightly longer load times , however, it's hard obvious and a little price to pay in exchange for an entirely softmodded system.

Users of Wii hardmods or'modchips' like the WiiKey must go thru a lengthy installation process and run the chance of understanding that if in the future something goes pear shaped with their modchip, it's almost irreplaceable and/or very hard to replace.  Also, these Wii modchips must be purchased which they can not be purchased regionally so you'd need to find an online retailer, wait for them to be shipped and then proceed thru the lengthy installation process.  If at any time your Wii needs servicing, forget about it, with a modchip installed your warranty is void and Nintendo will not touch the unit.

Users of Wii softmods will not face similar risks.  While the chance of damaging or'bricking' your Wii with a soft-mod installation is claimed to be slightly higher, it pretty rarely occurs.  The Wii softmod installation process is easy and needs nothing more than one particular video game disc ( which you could hire or borrow from a mate ) and an SD card to install the softmod, once completed, you now do not need that disc nor the SD card.  The soft-mod will permit you to access just about all of the backup game discs and all the homebrew and further software available.  Wii Softmod will even allow you to run backups of WiiWare.  

In conclusion, the Wii softmod would seem to be the best choice.  A Wii softmod will enable you to have the functionality without the risk of voiding your guaranty, it is free and a lot faster and easier to install.
