I am looking for a way to backup, store, and load PS1, PS2, and imported games. Without swapping discs at all.

My idea is:

1. Turn on PS2
2. Select game
3. Game loads

Being able to do AR Max or something similar without swapping is a huge plus.

What materials are needed to pull this off?
I would prefer not to solder, beings I've never done it, but if there is no other way, I'm open to it.

Oh yeah, v12 slim PStwo is what I roll with.

You could use USBAdvance to "store and play" your PS2 games, although the compatibility rate is rather limited as to which ones it can play. But as far as storing & playing the PS1 games, I know of nothing that can do that, not even on a modded console.

For PS1 games, you can store it on a memory stick and use a modded PSP to boot it. You'll of course have to first convert the PS1 game to a format where the PSP will know how to read it. For PS2, the slim's are cool, but the original phat model has more potential and benifit. Use a hacked version of HDLoader along with an IDE HDD w/ network adaptor to store and play games. You can use USBeXtreme, but data transfers VERY SLOWWWWWW. In my opinion, I would consider the USB method, the very last resort.
