I bought it for FFXI. Hated it. Now it's just sitting in my closet.

I have some stuff I need to back up. Can I plug the hdd into my comp, and format it so I can put my important files on it?

Has anyone tried it? Thanks.

Yes. It's just a regular old HD anyways. Hell, there are certain PC HDs that you can use on your PS2.

Hey, thanks. I ask because I know the ps2 hdd is a modified Maxtor, but I wasn't sure if Windows would detect it or not. I'll take your word for it.

I can format it by right-clicking from My Computer, right?

Yeah, pretty much. Just like any ordinary HD.
