Did you ever instal a HDD in the PS2?

Recommended Posts

I gave it a go, but it wasn't the easiest of things to set up. Booting games directly from the HDD in many cases introduced a number of framerate issues, especially with FMVs, since the data transfer speeds weren't much better than the USB 1.1 ports on the front. I never tried booting Linux from it, I didn't really see the point in doing so..

(Playing games over Ethernet works much better.. 😇)

Booting games are always difficult for anyone that don't have the coding spirit, lol. Once you believe that this is something you can easily do, then I see no need to be worried.
