- Use an OTG cable or external USB powered hub to prevent damaging your PlayStation Classic and/or USB/MicroSD adapter
- OTG cables can't be used until after Project Eris installs
- Not every USB Flashdrive or Micro SD Adapter works. This is due to the front ports only providing around 100mA. If the USB or Micro SD doesn't work try with another. Micro SD Adapter seem to require less among the two.
