Everyone seems to recommend Codebreaker v9 but I've found that v10 seem to work fine (with FMCB) and contains more games. Does anyone know why v9 is recommended?
I just tested v1.2.0.1. using a 4TB HDD loaded with 1,300 games. I first ran them through OPL manager to download ART. OPL loaded like a charm. On first boot I thought something was wrong since it didn't show the game menu, but needed to change "BDM Start" and "HDD" to ON. I found that ART...

I've been using my OPL HDD for a long time, and finally wanted to add new games to it. I pulled it from my PS2, connected it to my PC via direct-SATA, but WinHIIP can't see any PS2 drives. However, the drive is recognized by my PC as 'Disk 1'. Please see this screenshot...
