Whats the best way to add old DVD back-ups to HDD?

mistajase · May 3, 2011

I've got a stack of old wii backup DVDs and I want to add them to a WBFS partitioned drive, whats the best way to do this?

I know i can install dvds to the HDD via 'configurable USB loader' but it doesn't always work and can be really slow....

any tips / advice? I've been out the wii scene for a while.....

Use ImgBurn to rip the discs back to your computer and then copy them to the drive using Wii Backup Manager.

You can just rip directly from the dvd with wii backup manager. See 'features' here (wii backup manager thread)

'Backup DVDs
Direct rip to ISO, CISO, WBFS file, WBFS.
Support for Multiboot discs, convert each game partition back to full ISO or transfer to WBFS etc. recovering the game's original disc title and ID.
Batch mode. After a rip is complete, the disc is ejected and the next disc processed immediately when it's inserted.
Direct burn from ISO, CISO, WBFS file, WBFS.'
