Lets get to talking!!!!!! :)

SWEETT!!! :D :D

Thanks to the both of you! Warlock u da man!

I use a patched HDL myself. Using Crystal chips I boot HDl from memory card on 2 different consoles each using a 300gb harddrive. It recognizes them as 278gb. All of my currently played games are loaded on HD. Its great, I never swap or load from the tray, just turn the console on, It boots HDL directly from memory card, I select a game and play :) Life is good :)

I also use the patched HDL. Its very nice to have it on the memory card. I boot HDL from the memory card with the Matrix Infinity in Dev1 mode as well as the Crystal Chip from the Crystal Chips Boot Manager. Its very nice to have a single menu to pick which game you would like to play and not have any disc in your PS2 at all.

can you use the patch HDL using a apple pro mod chip and well i'll be the first in this thread to ask! How do i go about patching the HDL so i don't have to boot form disc anymore?

Yes you can use the Apple Pro with the patched HDL. However you will have to use it from a burned CD-R because the Apple Pro does not have Dev1 mode like the MI and CC chips do. The patched HDL does provide the ability to use HDL with out a memory card... that it provide by a chip with dev1/dev2 mode.
