Forget the previous post, i have a new question (could edit the other post, sorry)

I just bought AR and was curious about something:

I have a Nintendo MemCard 251 which has my gamesaves on it,

I now have the memcard that came with my AR.

Which one of these should be hacked up to make into an SD-Reader?

If i don't plan on using the AR for anything other than the exploit, do i need to keep the AR card intact??

hack the memory card for your sd-adaptor...The AR requires the hardware (dongle) to be inserted.
Remember..Dont cut the traces on gc memcard or you'll never see those saves again.
Refer to my last post.
Also I suggest you backup your saves prior to installing adaptor just in case something fucks up.
Goodluck!

why hack up a perfectly good mem card to make an SD adaptor when you can use a regular mem card itself? it doesn't hold as much as a SD card (depending on memory card and SD card sizes) but it's enought to hold GCOS to let you boot your backups. the procedure isn't the same for mem cards and sd cards but they both work for loading homebrew DOLs.

could you post a link on how to use sdloader without an SD Card???

From what i've read/understood, sdloader will only work on an sd card, but i can stand to be proved wrong(and save some money on cards and readers).

you can't do it with SDload since it isn't meant for memory cards. there is another loader (samson's loader iirc) that was written for memory cards. you still need an AR though. check this out:

Thanks for the link, but as i don't have PSO or a BBA yet, i am thinking the SD will be the cheaper, easier route.

First...you dont have to hack it up..some simple kynar wire and an hour of your time is all it takes to build your own adaptor...the memory card will still function as always.

Second...it is way easier to just drag and drop your multiple dols, anacondas, gcos, demos, homebrew..Via PC SD-reader..Under a Windows enviroment.. takes only seconds!

Third...SDcard can have huge amounts of storage.

Fourth...If your gonna do it...Do it it right.

So far the SDcard is the best..And I have the Viper, BBA, PSO, And Memcard With Sampson Loader.

The SDcard is the most versatile and supported of the bunch!

Goodluck!

Just to verify...

I don't need the BBA in order to use the SDLoader, unless i'm planning on backing up over network, correct?

yes, correct. i though you already had a BBA so that's why i recommended the memory card trick. if you don't have one, the SDload method is best for you. btw, a BBA is still quite useful even if the streaming days are over.

exactly but you can also use ctr-gcs to manage/backup your mem cards which can be useful if you don't have much space left. and who know what you'll be able to do in the future

Another queston....

I plan on starting on my SD Reader today and had an idea

Instead of buying 2 sd readers (one for PC, one to hack up for GC) why not just buy one, solder my wires in, but leave it intact so that it can still be plugged into my computer for DOL dumps.

Will this work??

Also, has anybody experimented with (or knows of ) a length limitation on the wires between the sd reader and the GC Memcard? I ask because i plan on making my sdreader detachable from my memcard (easier storage, transportation, etc.)

Why not get a USB Memcard from the GC from Lik-sang?

Because with the sd you can store up to 1gig of roms,dols,OS's,ect...It's very easy to use, just drag and drop...And when your bored with gc just delete or backup everything and use for pc related things. SD cards are pretty handy.

My built-in sd adaptor has wires 4 inches long with no problems...
