for a while now i'v been wondering how hard it would be to put an led into a psx or ps2 memory card and make it act like the hdd led on a pc does, make it light up when data is being read or written to the card, i already have a green power led in my psx mc (nothing difficult there), just wondered about that.
thanks
It's pretty easy and I used to have a diagram for it... If I find it I'll post it here.
/me awaits post
would it be very different between psx and ps2 mc's?
Thanks Alot!
ok its been a while, am i to assume you lost the schematics?
could you point me in the right direction to figuring this myself?
thanks..
The only two psx memorycards I get fucked were both models with LEDs incorporated. So I will pass, it brings me bad rememberings about all that savegames gone...
perhapse thats cos you bought cheap ass generic memory cards:P this one is official sony, i already have a power led and zero corruption has resulted during the 6-8 months its been in there
Sure. I never said it was caused by the LED, just that it will bring me a bad feeling.
I once bought a 3rd party psx memory card, one of those 24 page ones. I had it for a couple years with 0 problems, except for the one time that it touched the floor of my friends fan which was apparently magnetic according to him.... (don't ask)
could we get back to my prob? its been ages since lawrence said he would give me the diagram:(
