A lot of maxtors do work, it has to be a 3.5" of course but the main thing is to ensure thatthe distance between the IDE and Momex is correct. As the Momex and IDE on the PS2 are fixed.

Yeah that would work fine.

I have a 300gb in mine. I think the max is 400gb.

HDA says it's 200gb at the most, but it goes higher.

cool, So how many games do you think would fit onto a 80gb ??

PS2 games are usually mainly around 2gb with games like GTA hitting 4gb?? So thats around 30 - 40 games on a 80GB Drive??

I migh go for a 120GB or buy a 200GB and put the 200GB in my PC and use the 80GB from my PC in the PS2.

Whats best, HDLoader or HDAdvance or HDAdvance 2.0 (or what ever it is) ?

Quite strange, in Currys its £24.99 for the Network adaptor on its own, or £24.99 with Twisted Metal Smile hehe


Also, Can I connect the PS2 to my Hub that all the Other PC's are connected to and use the PS2 on the net ?

How many people can fit in a 1000KG max load elevator? I have hdloader on my Memcard, hd advance was hdloader with a bigger toc so it would work to backup bigger games with swap magic or what not trick. Zima wanted more cash of what he did not do.Hdloader was owned by DMS, not sure if they still own the rights to it. no clue whats new in the 2.0

No Steve, if you have a hard drive in I'm afraid you can't connect it to the hub.
I've got HDA 2.1, it actually says 2.0 on the box.
I got mine from here:
http://www.hdadvanceuk.com/hdadvanceuk/default.asp
I paid for it, but as far as I know, it can be copied.

Hub? What is the "hub"? A network hub? There is FTP software that you can run on the Ps2 and transfer the files from your pc to the HDD in your Ps2.

Fraid not. The Ethernet adaptor is used by the hdd. To get the files onto the drive you have to remove the drive and put it into the pc.

Check out http://wank3rs.maxconsole.com/ to transfer to your hdd


FAPlink is a client/server utility that allows a user to send standard ISO backup images of PlayStation 2

games to the PS2 HDD via the Fast Arm Protocol to be used with HDloader and/or HD Advance. This is much

like Winhiip but instead of having to move one's HDD from PS2 to PC one can just use this program and

an ethernet LAN to send directly to one's PS2.
