(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I seen CodeReality's suggestion of having multiple HDDs for patches. MAkes sense, Question is what is the HDD size needed to just run MW2 and all the other PS bullshit. Looking to get the minimum sized HDD to save on cost.Sure they are cheap but why not save more?

So like 20 or 30 gb HDDs are only needed? Im going to do like he said and use different HDDs for each different types of patches.

hey bish,
What Im talking about is what CodeReality talks about in his CL videos. He says to installed a different patch on EACH HD. So that whne you want to do CLs you can have that on one HD and then have Zombies on another HD etc.


Not using one to store them, phag.

Patches are very small files around 200 - 300 kb. What I use is a external hard drive to back up my My whole system. Mind you this is a system that I use for challenge lobbies only, I dont have anything else on it. Just use a different folder name to distinguish them. I then use my Ipod to transfer each backup (ipod is 60gb). It takes less than a minute to do because I don't have any extra stuff on this system. If you need more info pm me.

But for each different patch that you want to use ( Zombies, Challenge lobby, fun game etc ) Dont you need to do FTP and swap the stock patch with a modded patch EACH time? Or you just do it once, "backup" the system and put it in a folder named for each mod each time?
