i got an ide drive a while back, along with the official ps2 network adapter (since the unofficial ones to my knowledge lack ethernet ports), but for some reason the drive didn't fit in it. this was a large waste of money
do you really have to pick between hunting down a specific type of really slow transfer speed, hard-to-find storage for network transfer, or removing and then reinserting screws, praying the drive hasn't slid out of place and will still be detected by the console, with ferrying a sata drive to and from your pc in between, every time you want to add games? i have interest in a very sizeable portion of the ps2 library, so i'd to know a way to make it not a nightmare to explore on real hardware
ps: no interest in smb transfer or anything else that causes more issues than internal hdd, before anyone suggests it
