[PS2] USB Flash Drive for Save Backups

I also bought a Codebreaker to do this very same thing immediately after getting the 300/300 Star Ocean 3 trophies, as I'd be crazy NOT to permanently save that fucker.

I can vouch for this method, as I've saved tons and tons of games successfully to my comp with it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah. Plug in a USB Flashdrive into either PS2 slot, insert and boot up the Codebreaker. Select Device Manager, and your memory card(s) and the USB flashdrive graphics will be lit up. Select whatever saves you want from the memory card(s), and copy them onto the USB Flashdrive. At that point, you can delete them from the memory card(s).

Remove Flashdrive from PS2, insert into USB port in computer, and move them to whatever location you want on your PC. Permanently saved.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

You should be able to execute the exploit that lets you use uLaunchELF as long as you have a Codebreaker too, I believe it's called the "Independence" exploit.

Been a while since I've done any research on it, the last time I tried it I was able to get it running but couldn't do much else with it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooold It!

You mean as long as you execute the exploit, and have an HD + Network Adapter, you can play imports?

Please tell me how.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Can you use any particular HD or is there an established list of what you can and cannot use? I have a Western Digital 100GB ATA/IDE HD that I'm not using at the moment.

Also, the last thing I'm gonna do is criticize your methods, especially something like this lol. The mere thought of Suikoden V Japanese is more than enough for me haha.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well, this WD1000 IDE/ATA barely misses the mark and doesn't fit.

That sucks. I suppose I could try to find a cheap HD somewhere at like Best Buy to put in, 80GB-100GB IDE/ATAs can't be too expensive anymore.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I suppose I'll grab one from Newegg then, since most B&M retailers have HDs priced through the roof.

I saw the PM. I'll reply to it momentarily.

EDIT: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822145091 would that one work?

FELIPE NO

I don't know about my whole collection, considering I have 100+ PS2 games. A great deal though I imagine. I have a couple of imports (my LE copy of Suikoden V Japanese) and some other things I'd like to try out and as long as it stops the wear and tear on my laser it's all good.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Just came back from CompUSA in a failed attempt to find a Hitachi drive there, I guess I will have to wait out Newegg on that one I linked. Which is all good of course, I have way too much to do anyway.

Soon as I get that HD I'll let you know.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
