I don't think you can put saves on the hdd only games, i could be wrong but i know WinHIP is only for games.

You cannot put save games on the hard drive of the PS2. Use can't use it as like a memory card.

Nope, no game saves on the HD. Don't believe me: From official website: Can I use HDAdvance to store my saved games on the HDD?
No, no saved games can be stored in HDD

Well what all can you do with the hd if you cant store save games on it, is the only thing you can do is put whole games onto the drive and if so do i need hd loader\advance or is winhiip all i need.

and by the way thanx for all the help.

By loading games off the HD you save strain of your laser, speed up load times, and eliminate the need to have a DVD burner or burn DVD's. To transfer files from your PC to your PS2 you need a USB cable or USB extreme. There are are compatibility issues with a small % of games. HD advance and HD loader seem to work well by all accounts, most people are very happy with their copies and loaders. Winhiip formats your PS2 HD and allows for transfer of games from your PC to your PS2 HD. Here's some more info:
