The se card adapter used in this video doesn’t support lba48, it’s that why you can’t fill up to 137gb. There is other mod you can do with SATA adapter to bypass all limitations, another it’s iflash that I have done on some console, but sd card on market actually are up to 1,5tb and they are expensive

nope no need to use memory card with this method, but for unknow reason, some HDD/SSD adapter don't allow to boot from HDD, you need to try.

@@Gusse thanks yo I'll try it now

unfortunately nope, but MX4SIO does awesome job or sharing via network in OPL is awesome too if you have a NAS

check on my website if you want 😉 (board only).

there are always risks, but these are very sturdy consoles. I've done a lot of testing, and I've never succeeded in making one of them inoperable.

you need to put the files on root of an USB key and plug it on USB port on the console. Then you boot boot from USB key (boot mode "MASS") and if the usb key is correctly prepared you shoud have icon of app that help you to prepare your SD Card. You can also format your SD Card in exFat, but you lose the faculty to direct boot from it, and you need USB key or memory card with OPL in it. (Please check your eby msg)

these are plastic pins that sometimes hold the motherboard in place, and they can be tricky to remove.

it's a mod that I made to put SSD card on back on the console with SATA adapter and iDE resurrector, you can check here: x.com/Gusse__/status/1694691375269167210 and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kKhgaMaV096yl3k.htmlsi=CjijrWRKfI4jwfoM

thanks for your feedback, I really appreciate 🙏

better looking pcb i guess

I don’t remember which ost is it 😅

No, this is just a way on how to desolder the IDE plug from the adapter, if you want an internal HDD/SSD/SD you would need to go with either a FAT console or a SCPH-7000x SLIM model! For the SCPH-7500x and onwards, your best option would be getting/building an MX4SIO card and load games through that!

It uses the 7000x PS2 Slim console, with the IDE connection reconnected to an IDE to SATA adapter which has it's SATA plug relocated to a 3D printed peace which sits in place of the DVD drive. The SSD is simply dismantled to make it thin enough to fit into the disc compartment!

🤣

thanks Luke ! it's a simple showcase ;) the installation is also improved 😊

thank you. Without its capacitors, and with this kind of adapter, it simply doesn't work.

@@Gusse Yes I figured as much lol, I was just wondering if you knew why. Full disclosure I'm making a portable using this kind of HDD loading, and I'm trying to gather as much knowledge as I can. I actually tried this mod a several years ago, using the exact same SATA bridge device as well, just without the benefit of your flex cable. The system interfaced with the device, and I was able to load and play KH2 precisely once... And then it just stopped working. Mayhaps this was the reason? And had I known to put those CAPs in place, it might have worked more that just the once? I don't suppose that was what happened before you figured out to add the CAPs?

@@AngelArm1110 I'm not the person who discovered that capacitors were needed in these places. I just know that it's the fruit of empirical testing for no apparent reason. Capacitors help stabilize signals for chips, which are of very average quality but readily available and very inexpensive. Other boards apart from Maxwell chips don't need these capacitors. Also looking at ide to SD boards, capacitors are present and this is potentially only a prerequisite of control chips, and for certain reasons. Also the original mod released a few years ago and which has become hard to find uses more capacitors on its circuit to certainly stabilize electronic fluctuations.

unfortunately no, exFat format isn't recognize by modbo firmware

Thanks ! in theory yes it's possible, but I haven't tested yet

Hello ! thanks for your comment I totally forgot to publish this ! it's fixed you can check my download section on my website.

@@Gusse Thanks!

Good question : I take the 3v3 from the SATA adapter, I don't like this solution at all (cutting the shell, unscrewing the SSD to remove it, the fact that SATA M.2 SSDs become a little more complicated to find...) but since it's getting a lot of attention... I'm going to make a tutorial to explain how to do it

Thanks Robert ! it's an old video I think you have already see on X 😉

NGFF = M.2 , means: New Generation Form Factor , it's like "an older name for M.2". Major difference is described by "key", so "B-Key" = SATA and "M-Key" = NVMe, the most SATA-M2-SSDs are B+M-Key now, althrough B+M COULD also be 2-PCIe-Lanes-NVMe SSD.

@@Wlad1 Well, that's why I said that NGFF siuts more cause Sata drives were at the beginning of this all and I never saw that name to be applied to PCIe drives, for such only as NVME. Not a big deal thought, but some people are confused on all that and buy something that is not supported by targeted slot.

and the M.2 SATA more expensive than the M.2 NVMe so imagine the price!

@@Gusse i think its reverse?

@@reinaldoriyandi4025 WAS reverse. Nowadays, what is rarer than a dinosaur :-))) SATA-SSD is an extinct species

@@Wlad1 oh my God i dont know you all play reverse sentences, i just use standard structure sentences

if only I had time to waste making a fake ... Make a fake video is harder for me than make this mod... check here : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kKhgaMaV096yl3k.htmlsi=Nw8rYsodW_HWkG1I (it's the same start than this mod) then combine with wires to link to -> fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005006608080966.html (there are smaller ones, in the video I cut out this model)

didn't you see this post about X Luke?? it's little bit "old" ;)

I must have, and my memory is failing me. Which time frame did you post? I wouldn’t mind trying this. I have a spare sata m.2.

@@AtherisMods september 2023 if I'm not wrong 😉

@@Gusse yes! Now I see, I remember :)
