Improving your Memory Stick performance on PSP

Recently, I formatted my 4 GB Memory Stick and it has since lagging and transfer speed is horrible.

1.7 GB of stuffs took 45 minutes to transfer.

The reason: The memory stick is formatted as FAT32 file system and it caused all the slow reading and writing problem. Formatting your memory stick in the PSP will result in the FAT32 file system, at least for my PSP Fat. I don’t have a PSP Slim to test it.

The fix: Format your memory stick as a FAT file system and it really improves in transfer speed, significantly.

All you need to do is to run Command Prompt. Window - R to open the Run Dialog and type “cmd” for the Command Prompt. To format the memory stick as FAT, type “format ms: /fs:fat”, where ms: is the memory stick drive.Screenshot

Before you do that, make sure you backup your SAVEDATA!
