of course i wil...

but i have been reading in gamefaqs people saying you would be able to used it.. if you have a mod in it..
cause you r booting from the drive...

and if that is the cause i have to prepare my pocket for a new unmoded ps2

I've been thinking about if it would work for about a month now.

I'm 95 percent sure it should work.

Which mod are you using? Turn it off whenever you play FFXI, or any Internet game for that matter.

Yup.
I myself have a magic 3.1 so I doubt I'll have any problems.

I saw an add on TV for it twice today, you get the game and the 40gig HD for $99. Pretty cool commercial I might add :D

to use the hdd i have to put my messiah 2 en sleep mode
and turn off the mod..

but if i wanna play backups i need to take off the harddrive?

Looks like its gonna be the DMS modchip users that will be able to boot backups with the HDD enabled.
Apparently pulling the HDD out will really screw over ya system. And its gonna be quite hard for some users to use the HDD on a modded system.

This doesn’t mean the DMS3 is immune. All Sony would need to do is apply a small patch to the HDD every time you go to play online defeating any progress the mod teams may have made. So don’t get to high up on your horse DMS3 users.

I have the japanese version of resident evil outbreak and I play it without HDD, however it's HDD compatible but when you go from one room to another room, the load time sometimes reach to 10 seconds that become annoying later in the game , with using HDD it drops to 2-3 seconds.

yeah you can also play it offline but the best part is online playing, I can't go online because of my pal console,
also for japanese version you should pay a monthly fee for playing online, I don't know about the US version
