Considerations for a long-running Raspberry Pi
I've been running a bunch of Pi's for years now, and the biggest problem I've had is the Pi itself dying: 24/7 usage is hard on a small device. I've also found that stable power is essential, and to that end I've always used 5v 3a branded power cubes, plugged into a pure sine wave UPS. Choice of micro-SDHC cards is important and I ended up getting ATP industrial cards (https://www.atpinc.com/products/industrial-sd-cards) - expensive but really long-lived. Finally, using RPi-clone (https://github.com/billw2/rpi-clone) on a regular basis has been a life-saver. I clone to Sandisk Extreme micro-SDHCs and can recover from an outage in minutes.

Boot Pi4 from an SSD, not the MicroSD card
I would normally use the Pi SD-Card copier to duplicate the SD-Card to an SSD but I'm unsure if this is available on the Ubuntu image - you could possibly use this program [Github] if you are not keen on using dd with a running system.

Help needed on setting up Pi to boot from SSD
Then you will need to clone the SD to the SSD, you can use many tools that are available from your desktop computer or you can try with rpi-clone, just connect the SSD with Pi booted from SD, stop any possible service/docker to prevent any copy error and run, adapting device naming but usually will be (check device with dmesg):

Problem setting up psx-pi-smbshare in PS2
So far, I've tried setting up psx-pi-smbshare twice. The first time, I followed the instructions in issue #10 on the psx-pi-smbshare GitHub repository. The second time, I tried the same steps but without XlinkKai. In both cases, I could see and interact with the SMB share folder on my network. I also configured the OPL Network settings based on a YouTube tutorial titled "What Happens When You Connect A PS2 To A Raspberry Pi? | PSX-Pi SMB Share".

Use simple SMB Server to play PS2 games + other services
Many guides recommend using https://github.com/toolboc/psx-pi-smbshare to run PS2 games. However I feel that the above might be overkill since I just wanna run my game backups through SMB, and might hamper the other services I may wanna use my Pi for.

Games under 4 GB?
I use a raspberry pi and this setup https://github.com/toolboc/psx-pi-smbshare
- Anyone know how I can setup my MN-740 wireless adapter without the installation disc? I just received the device today but it didn't come with the install disc so I was hoping one of you smart people has a workaround.

- I'm feeling nostalgic for my childhood PS2. Any legitimate reason, besides PS1 emulation or the HDD, to replace an SCPH-90001 with a 390xx or 500xx Phat?
