im saying this as a friendly warning to everyone with a psp don't buy a psp hardrive.
they are rubbish and the cant even transfer movie files or game iso's
for those hoping for the 1.5 iso loader and devhook.
i have just bought an hardrive my psp was already 1.5 and hd dint work. so i thought upgrade see if the movies go on then and see if it was my firmware. but no it wasn't i went to downgrade from 2.71 again got the red screen and worse thing happens crashes out nothing happens no auto restart nothing so i switch it off switch on again and psp bricked. all because the hd fault so DONT BUY A PSP HD JOIN WITH ME SPREAD THE WORD FIGHT AGAINST THEM THEY ARE NOTHINGS WHOS WITH ME HUH ? WHOS BLOODY WITH ME? spread the word to everyone in every possible way.

out of curiosity, i'm going to ask this, didn't you research this before you bought it?

some people have gotten them to work, but since there's a 4GB memstick, then why would u bother w/ the bulky hard drive?

Yea, screw the HDD. I have 2x 2GB ms and 2x 4GB ms. That's all I need. The HDD is crap. It doesn't work well w/ homebrew. It crashes a lot.
