Best Practices for Portable Collections

• Keep a clean master card – duplicate it before adding new saves.
• Use folders for organization – e.g., \memcards\collections\rpg_card.ps2
• Label clearly – rename memory cards to indicate content (but PCSX2 requires Mcd001.ps2 in the config – swap files instead).
• Combine with save manager – tools like PS2 Save Builder help merge multiple collections.

class PortableSaveManager: def init(self, root, portable_path): self.root = root self.portable = PortableMemoryCard(portable_path)
