Right, simple explanation.

A HK Silver is a backup made in a professional dvd pressing machine. Yes, you can get dvd9 HK Silvers because you can press dvd9 discs and therefore u can get Xenosaga full unripped back-up on an HK Silver.

You cannot make HK Silvers on a dvd burner as a dvd burner does not press dvd's, it burns them and u can only burn 4.7GB dvd's.

The reason that HK Silvers r good is because you can make a back-up of a dvd 9 game ( i.e you can get a dual layer HK Silver) however you cannot make hk silvers yourself unless you spend thousands on a dvd pressing machine.

Also even 4.7GB HK Silvers have better reflectivity than a dvd-r and should therefore play better in your PS2.

Also they are just as illegal as dvd-r copies unless you own the original.

They also don't work on unmodded PS2's even though they r exact copies of the originaldue to 'Wobble!!??'
