on my end i can claim success with a usb stick up to 128gb's however they dont consume as much energy as a usb hard drive, but worth a shot i guess. you may need to externally power it with an external 5 volt source.
Im in hand of some good ones which worked well on my gpd xd and gpd win im pretty sure they will work. With that i will completly move the rom directory to external storage. And from that point we can focus on different frontends and load all of them to the nand. Then everyone can easy switch between what they prefer.on my end i can claim success with a usb stick up to 128gb's however they dont consume as much energy as a usb hard drive, but worth a shot i guess. you may need to externally power it with an external 5 volt source.
The HDD surely must be powered to also avoid data loss. Dramcast games are really slow even on NES/SNES Mini, they should be really slow on MD Flashback.
Can some of you tell me the mounting usb folder path please ?

Oh another thing: during the dump no other app is opened so it must be managed by the original AT "launcher" itself.
this may vary depending if you are using a hub, but in my case and im using the self powered mod:The HDD surely must be powered to also avoid data loss. Dreamcast games are really slow even on NES/SNES Mini, they should be really slow on MD Flashback. Anyway a PoC test will be cool indeed

Cant wait to perfom the mod xD im at working right now.. but when im at home this is the first thing to dothis may vary depending if you are using a hub, but in my case and im using the self powered mod:
"/mnt/usb_storage/USB_DISK0/udisk0/"
*If everything works you will see a full mega cd section tonight xDCant wait to perfom the mod xD im at working right now.. but when im at home this is the first thing to do
my board does not have the rework on the controller unit. there are differences. just use a tester to confirm the 5v at the solder pointThanks alot :-D im not scared to soldier it :-) got slot of training as im modding game consoles with passion :-P. But i guess the boards are identical.

im really happy to see great development on the Sega flashback HD , my wife gave me one as a presents days ago but i was really disappointed with the choppy emulation on the games , cant wait to try on all this fine stuff you're working to have a better experience , thanks to all of you doing this and working in this.
And finally im on the way back home.. i found the time to watch some reviews about the mega drive flashback hd unit on youtube.. oh my god xD by watching these its no wonder nobody buys this system.. but to be honest basicly theyre right. XD XD... but now lets make it a useable system. Who in here wants to make a little developer group which works together and shares related informations? We can work together by swapping files, use teamviewer, email, one drive and make the system better than it ever was.
Thanks, well im wondering aswell what the future will bring :-DI'm so impressed of what you guys are doing with the Sega Flashback HD
Looking forward to test out your awsome work in the future....
2TB is great or isnt it? To be honest im not interested to emulate other consoles than sega on the system.. but keep in mind the mega cd/sega cd library takes a lot of storage...LOL. 2tb on a sega genesis flashback.
but yeah glad my mod works for you.
also i have a pm for you incoming.
Basicly i would say the mod itself is simple.. but if you make a mistake .. youre done xD...that being said, though for all the folks that are seeing our progress from the outside the usb mod IS NOT for the faint of heart and yes one short wire will fry the usb bus.
i had to use 30 gauge wire for mine and even its hard.
also 2tb should be more than what anybody would ever need. i am laughing because that is AN absurd amount of storage which is awesome.

Amazing! Good work, this will make things alot easyer. I had alot of troubles by loading files into the mega drive hd.. i think this way is the best. Tough the main problem with this is that ppls require the 5v wire..also on a silly side note, now you can load the genesis games for my dashboard off the usb drive as well.
if you click on the "usb" simbol near the bottom right. so far only loading games from "/Games/Genesis/" from the usb drive works but i will add support for game gear and master system off the usb in the future as well.
By the way whats the plans on youre dashboard at the moment? What would you lile to implement? I might can help youAmazing! Good work, this will make things alot easyer.

Oh great now you tell me lol so the tv antenna cable I use is to big lol jkBasicly i would say the mod itself is simple.. but if you make a mistake .. youre done xD...
Nice nice that would be so cool all I need now is 32x lolalso on a silly side note, now you can load the genesis games for my dashboard off the usb drive as well.
