Tips for Using Large microSD Cards on SD2Vita with StorageMgr | 256 GB & Higher Setup!

  • Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
  • Many people who have followed my previous StorageMgr tutorial have had a few issues with larger microSD cards, so I made this specific video for a couple reasons. The first being to show that large cards do work, as demonstrated with a 400 GB microSD card in here! The second being to show and clarify a few setup steps that people might commonly skip or misconfigure.
    This video assumes you have a Vita console set up with HENkaku or h-encore and have the basic understanding of how to transfer files as well as modify your config.txt file to load plugins through the taiHEN engine. Everything is shown in here, however for a full tutorial detailing this further check the links further down in this description!

      i have 512GB on my PSP - and uh... yeah that ain't enough for the entire PSP's backlog, not even close lol.
      i've recently faced an issue with my Vita though since i originally used a 128GB SD card i had laying around at the time for it and after installing many of the games i wanted on it i quickly ran out of storage, so then i realised there is no point in getting a 256GB SD card and migrate everything to it because i'm probably going to face the same issue again, i think for the Vita 512GB is pretty much enough for all of the good games it has and a couple of PSP games and roms for emulators etc. maybe a couple of movies on it since even in 2020 it has a gorgeous display (i have a VITA 1000 mind you)

      1tb sd cards pricing also make no sense at all, it is significantly cheaper purchasing two 512gb micro sd cards instead of a single 1tb microsd card.

    @similaritiesendhere 4 года назад +42

    One thing that needs to be mentioned is that if you go 256gb and above you'll probably run into issues with the limited spaces for game icons. This can be resolved by creating folders to organize your games but eventually, you'll run into an issue where the Vita doesn't have enough ram (I guess) to correctly display all the icons even if they are in folders. You just get white circles a few other related glitches. You can ignore this but, it looks really ugly.
    If you want 256gb+ worth of games on your vita without making your menu look butt ugly, remove the bubbles for games (PSX, PSP) that you rarely play but, leave the games on your memory card. Add and remove bubbles depending on what you're currently playing. I have 109 Icons in folders and 54 icons not in folders. The upper limit where icons start going white is slightly above that.

    • @similaritiesendhere
      @similaritiesendhere 3 года назад +3

      Update: I recently upgraded to a 400gb sd card and ended up deleting all of my Adrenaline (PSP, PSX) icons from my main menu. I use the Adrenaline menu + hb sorter for those now. It's not as convenient or intuitive but, it's a step I had to take. If you use you Vita menu pages just for Vita games, it is really hard to hit those limits. However, Adrenaline also has limitations to how many games it can display. On the bright side, by the time you reach that bottleneck you're probably downloading more games than you'll ever play.

      @@M_CFV The icon issue has nothing to do with the cpu. When you run out of icon space on the main menu, you start putting your games in folders. Folders can only hold 10 games icons.
      You'll run out of ram before fill up 10 pages of 10 folders of hold 10 games. The issue is more akin to loading too many tabs on your internet browser.

    • @similaritiesendhere
      @similaritiesendhere 2 года назад +3

      @@pastelmacaroonThe reason PSP/PSX games cause ram issues is because they are so small and there are so many of them. You could potentially fit thousands on a 512gb card. That's a lot of bubbles.
      Vita games are larger and there are fewer of them. I downloaded every Vita game I was even slightly interested in and when I organized them into folders it barely took 2 pages.
      You're gonna need PSP/PSX games to fill up a 512gb card (not a bad thing) and if you use the adrenaline menu (instead of bubbles) to start just those games, you'll be fine. There's an app (homebrew sorter) you can get to organize your adrenaline games list otherwise they'll appear in the order they're installed (basically random). I think you just drop the hb sorter in your games folder because it appears on your games list. When you have 100+ psp games, it sucks finding a specific one when they're not sorted.

      @@MrMario2011 followup is that after you hit more than ~120 bubbles with this setup my vita crashes lol. So while you can insert a 1TB microSD card, you can't really use all of it successfully without hacking the app.db to clear out the bubbles and launch things via vita-launcher or some other 3rd party method like hexflow.
      Got about ~230GB on the SD2Vita and the liveview area will crash after about 30 seconds if you leave it there idling. Assuming that it is running out of RAM or something like that.
      No wonder Sony originally set the limit as 100 apps/bubbles.

      consider that most games weigh around 2.5-3GB and that adds up really quickly.
      and then you're also probably going to put some PSP games on it because why not.

    Hm. I needed this specific guide for a few months, but I still seem to be unable to upgrade the memory card size. I have a 128GB Sandisk card, that I just want to swap over with the current 16GB one thats in the vita and working. What I don't understand is why it will not work. I formatted with zzBlank and just copied everything over from the 16GB to the 128GB. I want to keep all the settings otherwise, just increasing the size and still nothing. Sigh. Any help?

    • @MrMario2011
      @MrMario2011  4 года назад +1

      Not sure if there's anything else manipulating your files, but it should be pretty straightforward. Format with zzBlank, format to exFAT, turn off Vita, copy all files from 16 GB to 128 GB, pop new card into Vita and turn on. Might also be worth testing with another card?

      @@MrMario2011 That's exactly what I've done. I will have to order another one since I don't seem to have any laying about. Can't understand what the issue could be. I might try and put the 128GB into my Switch, just out of interest and see how it reacts to it. I'm wondering if the whole speed/class stuff could be affecting it; not gonna lie, I haven't kept up to date with SD card speeds etc.

      @@MrMario2011 Sorry to fill up your inbox, but I thought it'd be best to share the solution I managed to get to.
      So. I swapped the new SD card into the SD2VITA. When I did that, all of my stuff disappeared, which was ok. But I had no moleculeshell or vitashell. So I redid the henkaku.xyz thing and made sure to hit R1 at the prompt so that moleculeshell installs again. This was now installing to the proprietary Vita memory card. That's ok. I made sure that the new 128GB SD card in the SD2VITA was formatted correctly and preflashed with zzBlank. Once I did that, I just got autoplugin, then went to vita plugins, then SD2VITA Plugin, started that* and then made sure my SD2VITA was set as my livearena (the application tells you this as you switch through the options). Once I did that, the vita reset and boom. It worked.
      *- I put this asterisk there because I did manage to have the SD2VITA pop up for one of the reboots. Now, I've no idea why it worked and why it worked for one single boot, but this let me install Enso and Moleculeshell on the SD2VITA, which meant that autoplugin could actually perform the SD2VITA mount, as it pops up with a warning saying it requires for there to be apps on the SD2VITA which is bizarre.
      After all of this, SD2VITA was permanently mounted and now shows me 118GB available and doesn't disappear if I reboot.

    idk if you will respond but might as well try and ask.
    i was thinking of buying a vita and i was thinking of getting a SanDisk 512GB Extreme PRO 512gb and i wanted to ask if this type of card would be suported by the vita if formated correctly. hate having to return items for no reason and i dont want to drop about 100usd if it doesnt work. i have done research but i cant find anything but sandisk works great, no specifications of which type of sandisk. most keep talking about the ultra so is that the type of sandisk i should go for?
    once again this may be an idiodic question and i myself have to figure out how to get the sd card formated correctly with only a chromebook dual booted with linux . . . this will be fun huh x)
    also one last thing great explination on how to do everything that was shown. very comprehesive ty! stay safe ^^
