Dear GBATemp'ers,
Since my 8gig SD didn't suffice for storing all my game backups, I bought myself a Lacie Rikiki 750gig USB 3.0 hard drive (http://www.lacie.com...ct.htm?id=10517)
Never had any troubles with game freezes when I used my 8GB sandisk ultra II SD card, but using the HD I do have problems with game freezes.
I modified my Wii using ModMii, so I'm using all the IOSes that come with that, and I use configurable USB loader to load my games.
The HD is formatted as NTFS and I use WiiBackupManager to load iso / wbfs files onto it.
I already searched the forum for "game freeze" related topics, and these were the results:
I also have the feeling that the game most often freeze when there is a cutscene coming up, although this is not always the case.
Any thoughts please? Do some of you also have these problems? How did you fixed it? What setup are you using, what might be the differences that explain it working on your setup and not on mine?
If you need any more info, please ask

- turn off HD spin down
i did this, so now the drive is turning permanently when it is plugged in - the game file you loaded isn't a "nicely scrubbed" version
since the games work absolutely fine on my 8GB sd, this isn't the case for me - issues with big partitions
some people mention that drives over 500GB aren't any good?
can someone elaborate on this? could this be the problem? Do I need to create a separate, smaller, partition where I put my wbfs files on? NTFS / FAT ?
