Question: Is a Dreamcast able to dump aracde GD-Roms?
#271196 - 12/17/11 10:35 PM


Just as the thread title states, I'm interested to know if a Dreamcast is capable of dumping arcade GD-Roms.

I've recently got myself an SD Card Reader for my Dreamcast and have backed up most of my collection, but I was just wondering if this capability extended to arcade discs.

Not that I have anything to dump at the moment, but more for my own information.

It doesn't address the SD Card, but it looks like the answer is still yes. I'd have to verify that the data is read correctly vs. the BBA; however, the results with the separate gdi/bin/raw files looks identical to guru's walk-through.

Despite the SD card using the serial slot, it dumps a GD-ROM in about 33-34 minutes, for anyone who is interested.
