after a fairly long time the HDD stop's spinning

its possible for this to cause issues in some games

i havent experienced that, just very long restart times

most HDDs have an idle shutdown.... meaning that if the drive sits idle for say 5 mins... it shutsdown... in a PC this is not a problem... but in the PS2 this can be one because the HDD may or may not auto start when info is requested... My HDD stays dead... which blows... and even the No Idle patch for HDL doesn't work with my drive, which blows goats... my HDD is a Maxtor 120GB 5400RPM model ST120 something or other drive...

I've seen several say that their drives start back up and others say theirs never shutdown... so it must vary from drive to drive (manufacturer or model).

(p.s. just to clarify, b4 people get the wrong impression, i use a 200gb maxtor and it starts back up fine, it takes a lil while (10-20 secs) though)

Maxtor Diamond Plus, 40 GB, Shuts down atfter 5 mins of idling, and turns back on if requested. takes about 10 seconds. Great HDD's.

My Maxtor shutsdown after idling for 10 minutes and starts back up within 8 seconds.

Okay we need a new hdl-patch to apply the SotC patch.

I suggest trying ssx on tour.

Does socom3 works with the Sotc patch?

**slicer74** · 05-09-2006,05:53 PM

changes:

- Swap X/O buttons
- Change Transfers mode
- Suikoden V patch by Crazyc added to the compatibility menu
- Getstat/fileops patch by Crazyc added to the compatibility menu (Enabled in default)
