| This method involves creating a dump of the cart after the block-level encryption has been "removed" and unique data stripped from the file.

| Technical Note: There are some game cards that have a writeable partition called "grw0". PSVGameSD can probably dump that partition fine (todo: confirm this), but it cannot mount dumps with that partition, so the only way to play these dumps is to convert them to NoNpDrm format first (todo: confirm this works). Also each time a cart is used, the partition data and therefore the dump will be different (as PSVStrip does not have support for stripping/emptying this partition). | Technical Note: There are some game cards that have a writeable partition called "grw0".
