Hacking Does this micro sd to ms pro duo adapter really work?

[Mario92]

I think I got fake from DX becouse it was actually falling apart after I opened package, but I put some clear tape over it and it works like legit. If it breaks I'll just order 5 more... oh it's sold out ._.

Like if I buy that along with two 16GB micro sd cards and put it in my psp, will I get 32GB? I ask because that would be cheaper than buying a 32GB memory stick pro duo.

It will work, i have one of those along with 2 8gb micro sd's. it works great!

Ok, so I would like to use two 32gb micro sd cards in a psp 2001(slim). Will that still work and what would be the brands for both sd and adapter? (going through amazon or walmart(in store would be nice info).

Best purchase I ever made. The best thing is there cheaper now. When I got mine, I paid about $500 for everything. Now you can probably pick everything up, for about $150-$200.

Hey I'm having a problem with mine. I have the photofast cr-5400 adapter and I have two 16 GB cards in there. I put 20 GB worth of games in there, but only a handful of them work. I can confirm that all of them work because of my previous use with my 4gb card. Any help is appreciated.

Well, this is 'comforting' to hear....I have one of these on the way from DX.


On a semi-related note, does anyone know exactly WHICH games are available using the 'Capcom Arcade Emulator(s)' ?
(Thanks in advance.)

Try turning off MS Speedup - it's not always working with SD adapters. Most adapter issues are connected with latency, so yeah... Might also be one of your SD cards being too slow or the adapter itself being fake - check if it works normally when you only have an SD in slot 1, if it does, it's a tell-tale sign that your adapter's fake.

The guy in the OP had PhotoFast CR-5400 MicroSD to MS Pro Duo Adapter Dual Slot.. but someone mentioned SDHC support is better in this topic as well. So I found this one: PhotoFast MicroSDHC to MS PRO DUO Adapter. Converts Two MicroSD or MicroSDHC Cards To MS PRO DUO


Can someone confirm which one of these is actually better, and what the difference between this CR-5400 and SDHC is?

 

[kristianity77]

Generally, all of the adaptors are the same. The hit and miss seems to be when you are using two different brand or speed of cards. Ive used numerous different Dual microSD converters on mine and PSPs ive done for family / friends and have had zero issues at all. And i think thats all down to the fact that i make sure the paired Micro SD cards are identical. Ive got a cheap converter for my own PSP, and yes its very flimsy but like another user on here i have 128GB in mine, and never had a single issue (now coming up to 6 months still going strong with daily use)

 

[Ryudo]

Well I wouldn't get different brands for the cards, I'd definitely get identical cards.

I'm just a bit confused on the difference between this CR-5400 and SDHC card thing. Since someone mentioned that you should get one with SDHC support.

 

[trumpet-205]

Problem is genuine CR-5400 is no longer in production. No matter which one you buy it is bound to be a fake one. I bought two of such fakes.

One would work in slot 1 only (no more than 16GB) at very slow speed, while the other totally fried my microSD card.

Really, just get the real Memory Stick rather than being cheap on these adapters. I bought 2x 32GB Memory Stick Duo for $100 during sales.

 

[Elliander]

I can also confirm that this works, but it was a bit tricky. If the microSD cards are already formatted when you put them together it only sees one of the cards. I solved this by putting the duo adapter into the PSP and attempting to format it there - which it could not do, but by corrupting the previous partitions I was able to use FAT32 Formatter to format the two 64 GB SD cards to a single 128 GB card. Both microSD cards work together as a single card so I would advice against taking the microSD cards out unless you don't mind loosing the data.

I bought (2) 32GB Duo's (2x16) for my kids PSP's and no problems. Mine are not generic. I know with 3DS carts, cheaper is not always a good thing to this type of items. In all fairness, the memory card you use in any adapter is where quality is most important (IMHO)

They work great!!! I got a Photofast CR-5400 with 2 x 16GB micro sd cards and it works great. My only complain is that with the more memory that you add, it takes longer for the PSP to load all the files. This doesn't mean games. Games and apps all load fast, its just when the PSP utilizes the memory stick, it freezes for a bit while reading all the files.

Hi I have recently brought a memory pro adapter and an SD HC card to go inside it and it don't seem to read the SD card.. does anyone know if the seems adapters can only use a type of SD card for it to work on a psp. I brought a San Disk btw
thanks

Did you format it to FAT32?

 

[Mccann113]

Did you format it to FAT32?

How do I format it on a PSP? because when I try that it says it's not working is this something I need to do on my laptop?
