The primary purpose of USBUtil is to prepare PS2 game images (Standard ISO9660) so they can be read by USB-based loaders like OPL, USBExtreme, or USBAdvance. Since the PS2 can only read USB drives formatted in , and FAT32 does not support individual files larger than 4GB, many modern PS2 DVD games (which can be up to 8.5GB) cannot be simply copied over.
