Internal 2tb SSD Ps2 Slim - IDE to M2 Mod

[@MrMario2011]

Super intense, but awesome you got this sorted!

[@coldfire0101]

love your work. this sort of work should be in a gallery

[@rezenclowd3]

Nice seeing a DMS4 Pro! I have the Crystal Chip 2.0 in mine.

[@mugogrog]

Wow, I just have to say I admire your work and the wiring job was very satisfying to see :) I hope you do one of these in a clear case one day so it can be shown off.

[@leonreaper90]

Amazing work, haunting ground too. Nice choice. Must be so finicky because the ps2 slim is so small but i have to give this a go.

[@LukeEdwards67]

Well done man. Really nice work. Looking forward to the next one with optical drive 🤘

[@dakotart1984]

I have wanted to work on new flashes for the DMS4 pro with updated "ToxicOS" (Hddloader). I have a grip of those chips laying around still. Even have some Pro SE's. Cool to see them still around.

[@37Kilo2]

Nice work, dude. I ordered a few of these last week. Looking forward to installing them.

What happened to the Hwfly v6 modchip install video? I don't see it on the mirror either

[@meloplayzz8970]

I tried 2 Times to install an sata hdd to an slim and i dont know why but in opl and ulanchelf the hdd wont reconize

[@GooseDaPlaymaker]

Would love to see an SSD install, while keeping the disc drive! 🤗

[@That_Handle]

Effectively, a ~switchable setup for an ODE ~in parallel?

[@MeGaLilCe5ar]

It wouldn’t fit onto of the fan to help cool it since it won’t completely seal? Plus giving u the ability to keep the cd drive ? And bro I can’t find those chips is there any other types of chips available?

[@That_Handle]

🤷‍♂️

[@Big_Kona]

This is sick! ❤ Any chance you can share your game list for a 2tb drive? I'm having trouble deciding what games to put on my HDD for my fat 😅

[@arie1293]

Was excited to try this when I first heard about Gusse’s work and then saw my slim is a 77xxxx model :/ lol. Oh well, guess I’ll stick with the MX4SIO. Not feeling very motivated to find a compatible slim for this mod but it’s pretty cool seeing these old consoles getting a new lease on life. I am, however, super excited to try the pico-fly mod on one of the ebay switch lites I repaired though.

[@TheMagnificentGman]

This would be incredible as a handheld

[@Kiyoshi_9606]

Can you also add the HDMI mod? That'd be the perfect PS2 Slim!

[@bulancicz578]

0:39 Where to buy this chip? Thanks

[@albynano4619]

Loved this work. I was wondering if there are any solutions that replaces POPSTARTER, for me personally my fav games are running like crap (Tekken 3 and Crash Bash).

[@haloslayer255]

Wonder if the 128GB (for practical uses) limit on micro sd cards is still in effect? Just imagine when 2TB micro sd cards become available someday at the price of $10. Not now, all are scams but maybe in another few years or so. Currently building a small cache of micro sd cards for a romset. See everyone in about 2 or so years lol. Keep up the excellent work ModzvilleUSA and Gusse! Have a good evening!

[@ModzvilleUSA]

It’s those ide to usb boards unfortunately. That’s where the limitation is 😫

[@haloslayer255]

@ModzvilleUSA ah, I think I understand now, the adapter is probably only able to see the LBA-28bit standard. Which is probably good enough for embedded terminals and older pcs and helps to explain that. Thanks again ModzvilleUSA, have a good day!

[@MichaelM28]

@@ModzvilleUSA would an ide to sata and then sata to sd adaptor solve the problem?

[@psudobuddha]

​@@MichaelM28stumbled onto something earlier this morning: CF cards use pata(ide) internally. You can probably solve the whole fiasco with just a CF to SD adapter card stripped down to the board. Anxious to test this

[@That_Handle]

If now tested, what was found?

2:48 Where to buy this eBay link please? Thanks

Excellent work. Think I'll keep my phat ps2 with hard drive 😅

[@ItsTeezoUBZ]

Lmaoo… dude your shit is dope. Hella had me dying . “This German website is a good. Resource, … and that is a shitty install” lmaooo

[@MichaelM28]

As you removed the DVD drive you didn't really need the mod chip.

[@mohandmohand2047]

The job is done boss.. 🎉🎉🎉

Ficou fantástico esse projeto. Parabéns.

[@lostdeath4202]

Will this work with Matrix Infinity?

[@RICARDO8888888888]

tengo una pregunta sobre los capacitores que son 4 que dices que hay que poner, el primer capacitor se conecta en el punto 1 y 2 verdad?

[@TWZrepairs]

nice work

[@bytesaber]

Did you have to redo the DMS4 wiring? The wires were green for the start of the install. Later when you did the IDE wiring, the DMS4 wiring changed to blue.

[@ModzvilleUSA]

There was a whole lot of troubleshooting that went into this one yes. I for ended up redoing it and ultimately removing it as the dms4 was acting up

[@bytesaber]

@@ModzvilleUSA Ah! I may have experienced the same. If it helps, I remember way back in 2005, reinstalling the DMS4 Pro "original" multiple times and never got a perfect boot rate. First cold boot always seemed to just black screen. When the PS2 would eventually boot, the modchip worked fine. Anyhow, sometime later the DMS4 Pro "SE" (Special Edition) chips came out quickly replacing the originals, and those would boot correctly. I still have some of the originals. If you ever learned how to make them boot consistently, I'd love to know :)

[@ModzvilleUSA]

@@bytesaber I never did! I have 1 out the 4 I own that boots consistently. The are wonky to some degree. It seems to only be with toxicos. Toxocbios seems to work fine

[@diegor4347]

Can ToxicOS work with Harddrives or SD Cards? Edit: I rewatched the video and saw it detecting the Harddrive. Did you ever get it working?

[@bunnyisblack]

can you make a video of loading speeds with m2 please? I know it won't make much difference with a HDD as the bus is the limiting factor, but it's still would be interesting to see

[@RUMPLGT]

help me please, I have a black image after turning on the game, and the adapter is soldered well.

[@plugpulled]

What about trim support? Bet the faw perf CPU on M2 is faster than PS2 itself.

[@TheSultan79]

Can you play old school games if you mod your PlayStation 2 like Super Nintendo or genesis

[@lancepage1914]

This is a mod to play PlayStation 2 games specifically region free without the disc - there is literally no other reason why you would go through this much trouble to mod your PS2. To play SNES or Genesis games would require the PlayStation 2 to emulate. And there are much better solutions and systems out there that are cheaper and easier to emulate 8 or 16 bit consoles with than a PS2 . The best advice and easiest way would be to use a a cheap PC or any PC to emulate SNES and Genesis games.

[@cya6108]

Hi, great video but I saw Gusse and I realized that you might have made an error posting this video. He uses 100pf and you say 100nf. I had the same errors like you and tried 100nf and the HDD was not found and when I tried 100pf it worked perfect. Can you please change it?

[@FearHeyZeus]

What akg for the sodder? And is it lead free or no?

[@Mareka6969]

hey, do you think this IDE to M2 SATA adapter would work in a OGxbox? I would like to do a slim version of the OG.

[@BALDOGON]

I want one. Where can I purchase one pimped out bro?!

[@BALDOGON]

Where can I purchase one modded ready 2tb?

[@dannyboone81]

So most hard drives I have ever tested are around 100 read and write, IDE is 133. I've seen people say it doesn't matter using an SSD because the bottleneck is the IDE. So I'm asking if you think that the better speed no matter how little of a boost, does it help compatibility? It should have more consistent speeds. I saw that new M.2 loader for the GC and apparently it helps with frame rates. Does an SSD help that on the PS2? I don't plan on going this route, but I'm considering a 3.5 SSD for my phat model if it helps compatibility by having a consistent 133. Any thoughts?

[@ModzvilleUSA]

This isn’t about speeds. This is about fitting it in a slim. For a fat you can go over 2tb now with the new OPL fork using exfat. I’d recommend looking into that

[@dcfuksurmom]

While there will be a speed bottleneck because of the limitations of IDE, there will be less latency and better access times than a mechanical drive because of not having any moving parts.

[@gungan5822]

I think you need a smaller soldering tip.

[@ModzvilleUSA]

Always use the largest tip you’re comfortable using for the job. Larger tip, better transfer of heat

[@gungan5822]

@@ModzvilleUSA Sure, but to actually have that benefit your whole tip needs to actually make contact with the target. A 3.2 mm wide tip isn't any better soldering a 1 wide mm pad, just more likely to make solder bridges or knock something else off. I'd go with something like a Hakko T18-C1, maybe C05, can't really tell from the scale of the video. Obviously your results work, I'm just physically cringing watching sometimes 😅

[@Ichihiro36]

I noticed some board burn due to radiant head comming off of unused potrions of the tip. It was bothering me, and alls I could think was that he should be using a smaller tip cuz he can't transfer any more heat in to the pad but not the surrounding areas with a bigger tip than the contact area... thus the smaller tip will solder just as fast but cleaner and without charing, singing and cooking not to meantion less risk of accidently desoldering near by connections or bridging. Look, I don't have a console modding background, but I've done thousands of smd solder mods on other electrinics with a soldering iron. The skills don't change because of what the electronics item is/does.... gungan is right, you would benifit from a smaller tip. Otherwise, your work is already really really good. Especially your cable management.

[@ModzvilleUSA]

@@Ichihiro36 Thanks! I recently upgraded to a JBC clone which allows me to use smaller tips efficiency. The smaller tips didn’t work well for me with the T12

m2 ssd is a huge overkill for ps2

Yes but it actually fits and doesn't have the size limitations of the IDE to SD adapters or speed limitations of using the built in USB.
