 [http://wiibrew.org/wiki/CleanRip CleanRip] can rip a game disc to an SD card or an external USB storage device.
-CleanRip only triggers the '''Wii Disc Ripper Setup''' screen for Wii discs.

 The storage device with ≥1 GiB of free space should be enough throughout the ripping process for Wii discs.
-CleanRip is not auto-configured to write a file with more than 1 GiB in file size and will instead split it into several pieces. At the '''Wii Disc Ripper Setup''' screen, setting '''Chunk Size''' to '''Max''', and '''New device per chunk''' to '''No''' is recommended with SD cards or external USB storage devices large enough to hold the entirety of the ripped disc file at once. CleanRip will split the ripped disc file with more than 4 GiB in file size regardless to fit the ''FAT'', ''FAT16'', or ''FAT32'' file systems. These file systems have a max file size of 4 GiB. To remedy this, it is recommended you rip the discs (especially Wii game discs) to a USB external ''NTFS'' formatted storage device (as Wii cannot read NTFS formatted SD cards). The ''NTFS'' file system has a ''theoretical'' max file size of 16 EiB (Exabyte), or 16,777,216 GiB.

Otherwise, set it to '''"Yes"''' and set '''Chunk Size''' to max possible ('''"1GB"''', '''"2GB"''', '''"3GB"''', or '''"Max"''') and when CleanRip is asking for the next device, remove it from the Wii and move the first or so ISO file onto your PC to free up and use it again. When you have received all pieces, check in the next subsection.

-Certain Wii discs are [[Dual Layer Disc|dual layer (or DVD9) instead of single layer (or DVD5)]]. CleanRip will also need to be configured to read and rip those kinds of discs. At the '''Wii Disc Ripper Setup''' screen, set '''Dual Layer''' to '''Yes'''. The rip will take roughly double the time than usual Wii discs of 4.38 GiB as the dual layer ISOs are 7.93 GiB in size.

-If you were to rip a game disc to a storage device that is not large enough to save the entirety of it at once, CleanRip features '''New device per chunk''' specifically for this situation. Set it to '''Yes''' and set '''Chunk Size''' to max possible ('''1GB''', '''2GB''', '''3GB''', or '''Max'''). When CleanRip is asking for the next device, remove it from the Wii and move the first or so ISO file onto your PC to free up and use it again.
