Access a Network drive?

Post by cruman »

Hello,

Is it possible to save games to a NAS server and configure the PS2 to access them? I have been reading through the forums but can't seem to find this info.Sorry if it has been asked before.

Homebrew games: yeah, just run them off the 'host:' device from the pc you're using as a server.

Commercial games: not that i know of. In any case, running these of anything other than the original cd/dvd is: {too much of a grey area/too ripe for abuse/just not done here} and as such is not supported on these forums.
Damn, I need a decent signature!

Thanks for the quick reply.

I am new to PS2 gaming I have just bought one for the kids and it has a network adapter installed. But was thinking that I could have stored the games on the NAS server instead of having to load them from CD each time. So you can't do this with PS2 games is that right.
