Do anyone know of a usb cable that would allow someone to connect to an external usb HDD?

Maybe for use in conjunction with a homebrew mod.

Use for video playing(with moonshell) or rom storage for game play?

I was thinking that since Moonshell allows media playing on the DS and it has some sort of USB like port. I’d like to be able to play Videos and such directly off of my external harddrive instead of having to copy it over to the card.

Of course, it would be great if Moonshell got compatability to play WMV or AVI files too.

Dead link will try but hope i dont fry my new ds,

giorgio this only is to power your ds to transfer data (im guessin you want to copy games) you need to get an R4 Or cycloDS or there are a few other card things.

I bought own a USB cable to connect DS to my PC.
It works as a power cable but I’m not able to “see” what’s inside a game card (.NDS and .SAV files).
How can I do?
Do I need a driver?
THX, Giorgio.

i made one of these last night when i was bored, made it EXACTLY like yours, plugged it into my laptop, and the charging LED just blinked on and off then turned off and i dont know why. is it because i use a laptop, or do i have a bad cable?

oh, another thing i did was: i had a spare female usb port, whitch i spliced to the wall charger, and then made a usb cable power charger like mentioned above for my ds, so it works for either charging off usb ports, or outlets. also, the wall charger also works well for wall charging other usb devices like ipods and stuff when your away from a computer.
