Hi, As stated in the title I need some help backing up files, specifically my PS1, PS2 and maybe PS3 games. Which external disk drive that works with Linux would be recommended for this endevour? Thank you for your time.

    You might have better help asking in the Linux community. It sounds like you need help with a disk drive, not with emulation.

      Sorry I thought you would have a recommendation for a decent external disk drive do I could back up and run my ps2 games through emulation.

        Your restriction makes it hard for most people to recommend something. You’re already asking a niche of a niche (emulator users who back up disc-based games), and then you’re looking for a niche within that (Linux users).

        Your post title also seemed to be asking about something else – I thought you were looking for HDD recommendations (since that’s a hard disk drive, but you’re looking for a disc drive because English is a stupid language sometimes).
