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.

    I’ve just found this community and it seems to be dead.

    I’ve just finished setting this up for myself. Do you still need help? I’ll likely make a post about it soon, but my solution involves a NAS (which is great to support retro gaming and is highly recommended).

      Thank you, I made a mistake in my post I meant Disc instead of Disk. So I am still looking for an usb Blue Ray drive to back up cd, dvd and blue ray based media.

        Ah, that’s something I have no experience with.

        Some prominent retro gaming YouTubers have good guides though (Wulff den and Retro gaming corps)
