(I won't be covering USB HDD here, because personally I think unless you have a V14, DON'T use this, it's just not worth it) Winhiip (for the PC – to copy games from your PC to HDD) HDLoader (for the PS2 – to load games from the HDD) IDE HDD (be sure to check for compatibility before you buy one: )Īnd if you have a laptop, an USB enclosure for the IDE HDD. Now all the versions can use an USB HDD instead (I'm not sure about V0 as I've only seen one before and it was ages ago), but note the compatibility isn't the best, and is really slow, but if you have a V14 or a V12-V13 and don't want to get HD Combo, then this is your only option. V14, you can't use an IDE HDD with this V12-V13, you can use HD Combo () which lets you add an IDE HDD to your PS2 V1-V11, you can add an IDE HDD to your PS2 with a network adaptor V0, very few people have this, and if you have this you can't have an IDE HDD connected to your PS2 because it doesn't have the expansion port I've seen quite a few threads asking about what you need to play games from the HDD, so I've decided to compile a tutorial for anyone who has question about this.ĭepending on what version you have, you may or may not be able to play games from the HDD (check your version here: ):
