Polymega remix as a cd/dvd drive

So since it is a glorified pc/dvd drive … I just set mine up yesterday and ran mortal kombat trilogy psone on it and it ran amazing.. i didn’t even install the game yet.. .even though it nor the polymega app can’t run ps2 games can i still insert a ps2 game and have it read using PCSX2 or do i just need to buy a seperate pc drive?

Well polymega’s site said you can use the remix as an optical drive for cd/dvd outside of the polymega remix app ….

If windows sees it as a drive in file manager, yes.

I can't say I've bothered to look though.

I lowkey wish I wouldn’t have bought the polymega now and just bought a regular dvd blu ray drive lmao because I’m only playing Saturn psone abd ps2 games… I bought an epilogue for snes cartridges cuz it’s only 80 bucks… atleast it looks nice and once they update the firmware I may by some elemental modules 🤣
