A 76 year old friend of mine just got his first LED TV. He was using on CRT type that was limited. After hooking up his LED TV, I move his old CRT to his grandsons play room. I noticed he had some equipment collecting dust inside the old entertainment center. After going through it all and hooking up his vcr/dvd combo, I hooked up the PS2 Slim. He also had (2) PS2 Phats. I saw a HDD/Network attachment on one. I brought it home and dug out my PS2 to see if I can't make something out of them. His grandson is so deprived to game systems that I want to make his PS2 work off the HD of 'Backup' games.
Sony PS2 Phat (USA)
Network adapter
20GB Maxtor drive (I had to tear the garage apart to find)
Controller
I haven't touched a PS2 for 15 years (if not more). I want to at least get it setup with the 20GB IDE drive. I do want to convert the IDE to SATA. I borrowed a game that is confirmed to be good for the PS2 (MLB 2004).
At this point, I am clueless where to begin. I read several things on GBATemp but it is all Greek to me. Any hardcore PS2 owners want to lend a hand?
Thanks,
ISO-Man
