PS2 Memory Cards - Guidance and Suggestions (sh.itjust.works)

Hello everyone! I was wondering what advice people have in acquiring PS2 memory cards. I recently acquired a PS2 slim for my birthday, and frankly my only experience with memory card based consoles is a backwards compatible Wii (where I have a memory card + virtual memory cards on the SD / backups of the memory card)

What is the safest route (in terms of longevity / corruption) to go (with or without homebrew).

Thank you for your feedback, looking forward to trying some classics I missed out when I was younger :)

Full replacement. It virtualizes the memory card as an image on the SD card. That lets you create whatever size you want, and cycle through them as well.

IIRC the second version allows you to manage it via WiFi.
