PSP Memory Stick, Micro SD Card Adapter Setup!

[@FlintG]

Love using the micro sd adapter. I use it for my 64gb sd card. I already got tons of games on it.

[@somecharacter01]

Currently waiting for my adapter to come and then I’ll CFW Infinity 6.61 the psp after that I’ll download it

[@somecharacter01]

[@xxxXX-tt9ht]

How does it work.. I mean the loading get slower or something when you had ton of games??

[@usmanazhar9170]

Which Micro sd card do you recommend for this adapter, 128 or 256gb?

[@neharnehar8689]

32 cause I'm pretty sure it can't run more than that

[@ermonski]

@@neharnehar8689 32 is a good size. 64 is great if you want to pack more games and emulators.

[@EikeKusch776]

When I try to format it says, "There is no Memory Stick[tm] inserted" when clearly I have the same one you use and a 64 gb sd card inside.

[@swordcrafted]

Micro SD to Memory Stick Pro Duo adapters should be very cheap on eBay so lets say a 32GB micro SD card is $10 and the adapter is $3 that would be $13 if you round it up to a smooth number like 15 it’s more accurate since taxes

[@Cyko..]

[@xexilia4430]

the white ones are flimsy and cheap as all hell. mine pretty much disintegrated inside my psp after 2 months of literally just sitting on a shelf. the black single ones are so far worth the money and pretty durable compared to the doubles.

Would it be ok to get the white one anyways?

My PSP 1000 (that I bought new like 13ish years ago) has broke/cracked not only adapters, but the actual memory stick. I have a few that have been super glued. Now I have an adapter and a samsung 128 gig SD card and its more than enough really.

[@DungarooTV]

Go for a single one with a large capacity micro SD like 128GB.

[@usmanazhar9170]

I could get two adapters and each will be 128gb.

[@ticktockbam]

@@usmanazhar9170 But the adapter with two memories slots is pretty faulty compared to the one with a single slot, and larger capacity means larger reading and loading times.

My PSP1000 doesn't read my memory pro adapter. Im using a 64gb microsd and I've formatted the card to Fat32. I've also tested the adapter with a USB reader to make sure that the adapter is working as well. I've even used the "tape" trick, but that doesn't work either.

[@joshuahernandez9193]

Update: the stock firmware 3.5X was too old to read the larger storage cards. I went ahead and purchased an original memory stick card (2gb) for the psp and a memory stick reader reader both off of Ebay. I formatted the stick on the psp and then downloaded the firmware onto the stick and updated the psp that way.

[@garrynorth6269]

You can get all the lost memory space back if you use the right programme.

[@Jrodsly]

I'd love to know how to get all that back because I tried to put a 256 into a single slot adapter and all that happened was it formatting to 59 gigs leaving the rest of the space unused. That's why I just stick with 128s.

[@allgoodgarden4719]

I had problems using it format 256gb alone in black adaptor, and problems even recognising a 256 in the double white adaptor (couldnt recognise to format). Maybe the double whites dont go as high as 256? I did want twin 256's. I got 256gb working no probs, buy using black single adaptor, format first with PSP, says on psp it has 256 space, but i heard it can have corruption when trying to copy material onto psp, and best to do the following, which i did after... as i didnt want probs After psp formats it -> MiniAide Fat32 formatter on pc (With PSP plugged into pc with cable - with memory card inserted in psp) So there i have it, 256gb in a single adaptor. I copied my previous 128gb backup onto it, and tested last night, gaming OK with double storage i had. Now to try get 512gb working somehow, i dont like my chances with double adaptor, i might soon buy a single 512gb card when they get cheaper, so i can run heaps of PS1, Emus, and heaps of PSP on it :)

[@KRDENAS2016]

What an excellent video, I swear I had no idea about that, I thought it wouldn't work, because maybe the adapter I have is a white one with 2 slots for micro sd, and a while ago I tried to format but I never got It worked, I waited a while to think about what to do and just today hanging around on youtube I had the idea of ​​seeing a tutorial or video explaining how to format micro sd for psp. My psp is not hacked, and I have an original 8gb memory stick as well as an adapter for micro sd that has 2 slots, so I just had an 8gb micro sd and I plan to add more memory to this original psp, but I don't know the total memory capacity supported by the psp 3000. Any help? Thanks for the video dear friend, I congratulate you, and thank you, really because you made me save a lot of money because the memory sticks are super expensive unlike the microsd that are within reach of the pocket... Greetings dear friend.... You have one more subscriber on your channel...

Bought a CFW 1000 off eBay and it came with a 128 gb micro sd pro adapter. I can’t seem to take the micro sd out of the actual black adapter piece. Feels like I’m going to break it if I tug on it, but from this video and some others it seems rather easy to slide out.

[@andrewgarcia1630]

Good vid man! I have one of those micro sd adapter and I have 200 GB of storage 😁

@EMagnificent Without CFW. If you hack your PSP you can get up to 2TB

@EMagnificent im running 256 gb in a single adaptor. cfw psp. i was hoping to run twin 256gb in the double adapor. It wouldnt recognise even a single 256 let alone two, in the double white adaptor. So i settled for now for one 256 in the black single adaptor.

use black single adaptor. See my comments above posts how it worked for me. Format in psp first, then leave card in, plug usb cable to pc with psp turned on still, and open MiniAide Fat32 format, bring up the psp hdd. You'll see it says unformatted in the description (even despite it was formatted in the psp just prior!). Then format it with MiniAide as 256gb. It will have a cluster size of 64 automatically also... and hit apply and format it. Then your done. Reboot the psp, and start copying on your back ups or what ever and youll have 256. Same can prob be done for 512 or 1tb etc Micro SD cards Split all files into folders, to avoid slow down. I ran 256 with no noticeable lag at all :))
