Hi all, first post. I'm pretty familiar with the PSP hacking scene, I put CF on mine, SNES, GBA emulators, custom themes, I play PSX games and PSP isos and cso's on it. I know my way a bit, and have never bricked my PSP, 'cause I take precautions. I have one question though.

When I was installing the CF at first, I remember reading somewhere that the memory stick shouldn't be more than 4 GB, or else it wouldn't work. I didn't know if it was true, but I used a 4 GB just for safety, and it worked like a charm. My question: Now that my PSP is hacked and has everything, I just need more space for games, videos, etc. Can I use something bigger than 4 GB? I was thinking a 16 GB Mem Stick. Maybe the size limitation issue only applies to the "Magic Memory Stick" part, but I'm not sure.

Just in case, even if I can use a 16 GB now, I'd appreciate it if someone explained to me also WHY is it that MS larger than 4 GB dont work as a MMS. I've browsed around, but haven't found anything. Thanks in advance.

There is a 4gb restrictions when making the Magic MS. If u want to use ur 16 gb for normal use on a custom firmware psp. Then it work fine.

I know there is a 16gb, but is it out for sale ?
