Describe the issue

Stuck at HDD loading screen. No games show up on the list. 20TB HDD with nearly 5000 games on it. Is there a file limit? Im using the latest Beta too. Loads forever, but no list appears. Same drive worked fine when there was like 30 games on it.

Console model

5001

OPL version / revision

Beta 1.2.0 - 1984-61022e

In which device(s) have you experienced this issue?

HDD

Context and extra information

No response

Yes, there is a limit, because normally, PS2 support up to 2TB Hard Drives (and up to 1.5 TB for PS3). If you need to load such a quantity of games, try SMB from a desktop.

Do you know what the limit is? I watched the Macho Nacho video & he implies its a lot more than previously possible. Kinda disappointed if not

@Mitch200584, only this OPL version supports HDD larger than 2TB.

Yes I am on the latest Beta Firmware. I still have the problem mentioned above

Yes I am on the latest Beta Firmware. I still have the problem mentioned above

it is NOT in the latest beta. 2Tb+ isnt implemented in official beta stream.

[Mitch200584]

Looks like I do have the Grimdoomer files, but the problem still persists. I guess this forum is only for official firmware.

@Mitch200584, use PS2HDDTester and write your issue here.

I have the same issue is a stuck on BDM loading screen. There is no games show up on my list. Any idea what should i do?

OPL 1.2.0 BETA 2030 PS2 (SCPH-90006) Running game on external hard drive 80 GB exfat format

Before this, everything is normal with the same config above until i add some games, defrag it, and puuffhh.... can't load anymore. But led is blinking in my hard drive that mean OPL try to load but cannot.
