correct ^^

and you don't need a mod chip, hell you don't even need to buy hdloader, you can ftp it to your HD and load it to your memery card.
I just bought hdloader...

alright , I thank you so much for your help.

Hopefully i'll get into this, once i've successfully receive a modchip im expecting to get.

you really don't need a mod chip with hdloader, but if you do I would suggest a dsm4 mod chip, you can now upgrade to toxic OS firmware, basically lets you copy any game to your HD because it will read both layers
