Internal Storage

[solarice]

Hi,

i was just wondering whether or not you thought it would be possible to install internal mb's into the gp32 (inside the case). like the 256mb storage in mp3 players or usb drives.

So you would have the internal storage and then the smc card for further expansion.

could this be done ?

GP32 cannot handle any SMCs above 128MB..or USB drives

yeah i was aware of that, but isnt that just voltage limitation. but i was wondering whether or not you could fool it by mounting internally.

No you can't.

Actually, it might be possible to do a pen drive outside however with gp32 linux. I don't think it would be possible inside because of the way programs rely on SMC read/write methods.

if the pen drive stuff works, you could stick one inside your 32
internal memory

No you can't.

that's a bit harsh imho, it MIGHT be possible, wouldn't know how but I like the idea we'd all like a little extra storage ^^

i thought that answer was a bit premature...


what are your qualifications, gamepark128? just wanna know where you're coming from...

the s3c2400x has a MMC interface, i haven't looked too hard into connecting anything to it, and ofcourse one would need drivers.. but it doesn't seem completely impossible..
