[http://wiibrew.org/wiki/CleanRip CleanRip] can rip a game disc to SD or USB. Note that CleanRip may split the ripped disc file into several pieces to fit the SD or USB card's file system. You may need to put together the pieces of the ripped ISO yourself, or else Dolphin will not run it (or will just boot to a black screen). FAT, FAT16, and FAT32 formatted storage devices have a max file size of 4 GiB (Gigabyte) and NTFS has a <nowiki>[</nowiki>theoretical<nowiki>]</nowiki> max file size of 16 EiB (Exabyte), or 1,048,576 GiB. To avoid assembling the pieces of the ISO yourself, it is recommended you rip the discs to a USB external NTFS formatted storage device (as Wii cannot read NTFS formatted SD cards), set '''''Chunk Size''''' to '''''Max''''', and '''''New device per chunk''''' to '''''No''''' at the '''''Wii Disc Ripper Setup''''' screen. GameCube discs will not have this potential issue because the max size is 1.36 GiB, so ripping to an external FAT, FAT16, or FAT32 formatted storage devices, especially SD cards, will be acceptable. | [http://wiibrew.org/wiki/CleanRip CleanRip] can rip a game disc to SD or USB.

Certain Wii discs are [[Dual Layer Disc|dual layer (or DVD9) instead of single layer (or DVD5)]]. 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 disc ISOs are 7. | Certain Wii discs are [[Dual Layer Disc|dual layer (or DVD9) instead of single layer (or DVD5)]].
