I am using the latest versions of OPL and FMCB. I want to copy my ISOs to an HDD, so I need a SATA adaptor.

Which of the following adapters should i purchase ?

Kaico

Rgeek

Gamestar

????
Woah, all for 35$? Even if it's in Canadian $ it's still expensive.. Specially for the Gamestar one which you can get on Aliexpress (and such) around 15$ or less. Beware the Gamestar one doesn't have the ethernet port so keep that in mind. And there's some users claiming having compatibility issues with some games..
A better option imo, is to get an OEM Sony PS2 network adapter and get an IDE to SATA adapter. It's easy to assemble too..

Again, the price of those shouldn't be that high (and that's minus shipping?). you can get one in Aliexpress around 15$ or less too. Shipping is not much either..
Other than that, yes either should work fine, they're from the same manufacturer..

I have the Gamestar and used it for awhile and games seem to load fine.
Yea, I heard good things.. Though the lack of the ethernet port might break it for some people, since if you want to add a game for example you'd have to remove the hdd and connect it to your pc (everytime) in order to do that.. Also no online with XLink Kai for games like Socom etc.
