    Just saw this , and was curious how it'd work. This page claims you need the DMS4 to make use of the cable. However i know that what stores claim isn't always the case with PS2 apps.

    My question is :
    If i make use of this cable to attach a hard drive to a slimline PS2, can i simply run an HDLoader ELF (similar to doing so in a normal sized PS2) and have it detect the hard drive? or is the DMS4 truly necessary? =(

    Have a look at this.

    No you dont have to use the DMS4 with this mod. But if your asking if you can use the exploit to boot HDL on the slim PSTwo's the answer is no. You will need a mod chip with dev1/2 mode. The MI, CC or DMS4 Pro can all be used with this mod.

    also have a look at this link

    The HD-Combo is a better solution then the HD-Connect in my eyes.
