Something to just point out. The HDD is not designed to be used for gamming purposes. The HDD is designed for the Linux use ONLY, just in-case anyone thinks they can a HDD there. The FAQ area even states it, saying that the HDD that comes with the Linux kit is NOT designed for game use.

yeah, even on that page all about the kit
"The hard disk drive formatted for Linux cannot be used with HDD-compatible PlayStation 2 games. Basic understanding of the Linux operating system is strongly recommended for installation and use."

Nah it say "Formatted for Linux". The formatted means it has a partition and is setup for the Linux OS, I'm pretty sure the partition for game use will be a different format.

They give you the software so you can choose to format the HDD with Linux or not.
