Ok, guys, I just got the Official Sony Hard Drive...

And I know the _ is capable of this, yet I do not have a _, so, maybe someone can enlighten on how the _ does it...

Yet, how would I transfer games to the Sony's 40Gig(More than My Computer, God Damn!) Hard Drive....Cause if I can't, that is a waste of a hard drive...

Any Help is Appreciated

Ok, I may be posting this too hastily, yet after fooling around with the hard drive....Sony's Hard drive does something, I get the red screen every single time I want to play copied games, even copied movies. Even If I put in an original, with the mod chip, still the red screen...

I have to put the mod chip in sleep mode to resolve this or remove the hard drive, all together to play copied games...

Does anyone know of this?

I am running a V4 with a Magic 3.1

Any Help is Appreciated

Update: (For those that Care :p )

I tried a copied PSX game, entitlted Hard Lake with the Hard Drive in...and it booted up fine...

The only difference that I can see, is that it was patched, like you see the crew's insiginia instead of the PSX logo when you first start up the game....

Only the DMS3 is supporting the hdd right now. You'll have to disable your magic chip when using the hdd.
