I just bought this at DealExtreme with 8GB MicroSD :D
long story long, I bought this adapter and two 8gb microsds, well the tool sent me 2 sds which left me with a useless adapter so i went to my local computer superstore and they had 4gbs on sale so i bought those and everything worked fine. Still waiting for the two 8 gbs I broked down and bought 1 8gb, and that worked fine with one of the 4gbs, and got a refund on the 2 8gbs and got 1 16gb, its arrived but will not work with either my 8gb or 4gb but the 16gb will work by itself as soon as I try to format the 16 with the 8 first it says format error and if I try again it will say there is no memory stick inserted.
Ive tried formatting the 16 taking it out of slot 1, putting in the 8 in slot 1 and formatting then putting in the 16 in slot 1 and the 8 in slot 2 and reformatting (which is what I did with the 8 and 4). still no memory stick inserted message.
I tried 16gb in slot 1 and formatting then 8 in slot 2 and formatting, same thing
Ive also tried to use the 4 instead of the 8 nothing, I put the 8 and 4 back in to see if slot 2 was messed up and they worked fine.
Also when I plug my psp into my laptop it reads the 8+16 fine. But if I try to let windows format it it says Windows was unable to complete format.
Please Help, thanks
Hi,
I have the same problem as lokis23rdeye. Dose anyone know a reason or solution to this problem?
Hmmm, I have ordered mine, should be here shortly...
From the instructions I read, you have to format one card in slot 1, then move that card to slot 2, and put the other unformated card in slot 1 and then format both at once for it to work.
Ill check it out when I get it tomorrow.
Hmmm, got it, formatted it as I mentioned in my previous post and it showed up fine. Now I am getting the problem of any game Iso/cso refusing to load. Seems to crash the PSP once it gets past the psp logo screen. Locks up so bad I cannot even press Home to get back to the XMB.
When copying data across, I noticed that with 2X 8GB MicroSD, it was slightly slower, but not enough.
The crashing has prevented me from testing any real games with it though D:
[Edit] Scratch that, looks like the mode to run games isn't Sony 9660 here, seemed to only work on m33. Plays fine. Also, the speed seems to be fast enough for pretty much everything I threw at it. Some minor slow down on loading screens, so playing any of the GTA games without a UMD will probably be impossible. So far so good!
this thing rocks!
$110 for this and 2 16gb microsdhc.
Oh and it looks like this adapter is using the RAID-style technologies, so having dual memory stick support will be very unlikely.
I had the problem of "the memory stick is not inserted". For some odd reason, running it on AC without the pandora battery inserted fixed the problem.
Got mine a few days ago with two SanDisk 16GB MicroSDHC cards. At first, I thought I was scammed because the adapter came empty and with what seemed like 2 SD cards I had not ordered . After closer inspection I found these were actually 2 MicroSD to SD adapters (not mentioned when I bought the item) and the 16GB MicroSDHC cards were inside! I quickly took them out, inserted both into the CR-5400 and popped it in my PSP Slim. After a quick format my PSP was now showing 29GB of free space!!! Nice.
I then proceeded to copy about 20GB of ISO games. which took about 45 minutes through a standard USB cable connected to my laptop. I guess the txfer speed could improve if I had a MSPD adapter for my PC. However, I now have almost everything I own for the PSP on a single card and plenty of room to spare for video and music. Very nice. Works like a charm.
I'm seriously considering buying another one and ditching my 80GB Ipod classic. Long live the PSP!!!
P.S.: In all my tests loading times are at least less than a third when compared to running from the UMD. GTA runs way smoother and faster and no noise from the UMD is a great plus. This thing rocks!!!!
I've gotten piles and piles of I/O errors when the thing is plugged into a card reader.Quote:
