Question What is the best software to backup PS2 games?

I have used Nero 6.0.0.15 and CDRWin 5. witch of the two is more reliable or is there some other software that can make better 1.1 backups?

Don't use either. Get CloneCD or Alcohol 120%.

bighap, what are the advantages of Alcohol 120% and CloneCD over Nero and CDRWIN when making 1.1 backups of PS2 games?

It's the discs which the games are burned on that cause the problem, not the software which is burning it. Verbatim DataLife PLUS are the best discs to go for when backing up CD-R. Hope this helps...

Cdrwin and Nero don't do well with protections. Alcohol and CloneCD get by them.

The latest version of Nero does support RAW-DAO-96 just like clonecd and alcohol, I still like clonecd the best though.
