....Never tried it myself, but I know that PS2 USB backup loading is possible...
But I also know, that virtually every game with a cutscene/moviescene lags, because of the USB port only being USB 1.1/1.0.... You don't think thats a problem for you?
Anyway, sorry cant help you...
I have a slim ps2 myself, but I'm just using burned DVD's and freeboot... Would like a fat PS2 that I could install a HDD in though :P

I have the same one. It works for me. Are you sure you have your games in the correct folder and that's the drive is formatted to FAT32? That drive comes default formatted to NTFS which the PS3 won't read.

My apologies. I read that and still the PS2 part somehow went through one ear and out the other. I hope you get it figured out.
