Ok I ready a few threads about using a hdd connected to the ps2 network adapter using a program like HD Advance.

What I am unsure about is that can I replug in the hdd into my pc and simply copy new game 'backups' off the net on the hdd and then replug into the ps2 without any other stuffing around or do the games need to be ripped from the a ps2 dvd to the hdd to work??

Shan I will have to send you over a 200GIG for some of your backups I think :)

Yes you can. Use a program like WinHIIP 7.1 or 7.2 I think. Also if you run an FTP server on your PS2, you can actually hook up the PS2 to your PC via ethernet cable and install your games that way, instead of undoing your PC and PS2 every time you need to copy stuff.

i've got a hotswap bay in my PC, so that's not a problem. To ghost the drives I'd have to connect em both up.

The problem is more to do with motivation to actually do it than the method :)

isent each game around 2-3 gig?

yup... but some are 4GB

i get addicted to one game... play it solid for a while.. then get new games and leave the other ones... so im in the middle of playing about 40 games each is only about 60% finished tho

denham do u have the parts? ie. a spare mem card and a network adaptor??

if u do come around and bring an original PSone game and i'll do it for u in about 5 minutes like i did my mates the other day

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
