Best PS2 USB Loader. I've mainly heard about Open PS2 Loader and USB Advance/Extreme. Open USB Loader seems to have promise as it's open source and seems to get updated regularly, but compatibility charts seem to say that a lot of games have issues running off of USB (FMVs stutter, etc). I could be mistaken, but it seems that USB Advance's. SCES520.04.Killzone.iso Then the games will show up just fine. Keep in mind that USB Loading is very poor since the PS2 only has a USB1.1 port, the compatibility is also iffy. It is recommended that you use either HDD Loading or SMB Loading. Refrain from using scrubbed releases, clean ISO's work best.
Introduction
Open PS2 Loader (OPL) is a 100% Open source game and application loader forthe PS2 and PS3 units. It supports three categories of devices : USB massstorage devices, SMB shares and the PlayStation 2 HDD unit. USB devices andSMB shares support USBExtreme and *.ISO formats while PS2 HDD supports HDLoaderformat. It's now the most compatible homebrew loader.
OPL is also developed continuously - anyone can contribute improvements tothe project due to its open source nature.

How to use
OPL uses the following directory tree structure across HDD, SMB, andUSB modes:
| Folder | Description | Modes |
|---|---|---|
| 'CD' | for games on CD media - i.e. blue-bottom discs | USB and SMB |
| 'DVD' | for DVD5 and DVD9 images if using the NTFS file system on USB or SMB ; DVD9 images must be split and placed into the device root if using the FAT32 file system on USB or SMB | USB and SMB |
| 'VMC' | for Virtual Memory Card images - from 8MB up to 64MB | all |
| 'CFG' | for saving per-game configuration files | all |
| 'ART' | for game art images | all |
| 'THM' | for themes support | all |
| 'LNG' | for translation support | all |
| 'CHT' | for cheats files | all |
| 'CFG-DEV' | for saving per-game configuration files, when used from a OPL dev build - aka beta build | all |
OPL will automatically create the above directory structure the first timeyou launch it and enable your favourite device. For HDD users, a 128Mb +OPLpartition will be created (you can enlarge it using uLaunchELF if you need to).

USB
Game files on USB must be perfectly defragmented either file by file orby whole drive, and Dual Layer DVD9 images must be split to avoid the 4GBlimitations of the FAT32 file system. We recommend Auslogics Disk Defragfor best defragging results.
You also need a PC program to convert or split games into USB Advance/Extremeformat, such as USBUtil 2.0.
SMB
For loading games by SMB protocol you need to share a folder (ex: PS2SMB)on the host machine or NAS device and make sure that it has full read andwrite permissions. USB Advance/Extreme format is optional - *.ISO imagesare supported using the folder structure above with the added bonus thatDVD9 images don't have to be split if your SMB device uses the NTFS orEXT3/4 file system.

HDD
For PS2, 48-bit LBA internal HDDs up to 2TB are supported. They have to beformatted with either HDLoader or uLaunchELF (uLaunchELF is recommended).
To launch OPL, you can use any of the existing methods for loading anexecutable elf.
On PS3, you need an original SwapMagic 3.6+ or 3.8 disc (at the momentthere aren't any other options). The steps for loading OPL on a PS3 are:
Open Ps2 Loader 0.7
- Rename OPNPS2LD.ELF to SMBOOT0.ELF
- Make a folder in root of USB device called SWAPMAGIC and copy SMBOOT0.ELF to it.
- Launch SwapMagic in PS3 and press UP+L1 then Open PS2 Loader should start.
There are 4 forms for launching elfs in SwapMagic.
SMBOOT0.ELF = UP + L1
SMBOOT1.ELF = UP + L2
SMBOOT2.ELF = UP + R1
SMBOOT3.ELF = UP + R2
Note: on PS3, only USB and SMB modes are supported.
