DAMMM!! i want 30GB lmao
I would like to see a commercial solution to mass storage on the PSP. Battery consumption would be a huge problem if it was a USB attached mini portable HDD.
I think a 32GB high capacity & high speed PRO Duo memory stick would be the best way to go. That would be the perfect amount of storage for the PSP. Especially with SONY opening up more options for downloaded media via PlayStation Network.
I don't use UMD's in my PSP anymore and haven't for some time. I buy UMD games or ask for them as gifts because I'm a collector and I like having the game manual. Then there is the fact that I'd hate to see my favorite games' developers suffer from piracy. Most of my PSP games are still sealed in original packaging and I play the .CSO backup of the game off a 4GB Ultra II memory stick. And I've been using my PSP Slim for watching video lately. The Slim PSP WOULD be so much better than an iPod or iPhone if it had more storage.
lol the theme looks messed up
cool but dang looks hectic to add on a psp
it would be cool to have an official one like 40 gig or more.
Price? ^^ something like $300 so no thx u
nice idea, unfortunatly i doubt you will see a commercial version of this. id like to see a separate device, possibly powered by the psp's extra external 5v pin (next to usb, gps & camera uses it) although i don't know if SSD can be powered like that.Quote:

yea...
this is why this mod is not exactly practical...
in that link it shows how much a 128 gig SSD cost....
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820609245
$3,219.99 for 128 gigs?
32 gigs cost between 600 and up.. i think it would be more practical to wait for the 32 gig MS Pro Duo than to hard mod a expensive SSD in there
though... thats just my opinion
cool when it on sale lol
Apparently this is not an SSD, i think.
It's an psp connected to a mini harddrive.
The harddrive is accessed through another pcb, which is implemented behind the umd door by PvP.
Great work, i hope there are some internal pictures coming up !
The PSP acting as USB host would be great. Being able to hook up any external hard drive you wanted would be awesome.Quote:

im wondering why its not possible to use the psp as a device host itself allowing access to usb based hdd's without any cludgy hardware. i dont fully understand why it hasnt been done but it would seem to be more practical.
i believe all pvp has done is taken a 32gig ipod, removed everything from the standard casing, removed the lcd panel, battery and clickwheel, installed linux and used it exclusively as a device host. i think the ipod hard drive is small enough to fit inside the psp and hes most likely using the psp power that normal powers the umd to power the ipod internally.
i have had my ipod apart and i could do this however it would be a nightmare trying to do it - i believe these guys could easily pull that off assuming the ipod is capable of being used as a device host. to test it all you would need is an ipod converted to run linux and set to load usbhostfs, then simply connect the 2 devices via the usb ports. ill be doing some research as to whether the ipod usb can be used as a device host and if so i may try this mod myself.
i really would like to know in advance if this is how he did it so i wouldnt be wasting my time.
