Buy a cheap one, no need for fancy chips (DMS4) with loads of useless functions for the average gamer Smile
Get a Duo2 SE, it plays games and have support for HDD if you want that and DVD9, and that's all a average gamer needs. Smile

Although if it's an old shape ps2 then get Hard Drive Advance.

I've got that on an unmodded PS2 and it's great.

There is a way of putting a hdd onto a ps2slim if you're handy with a soldering iron.
Not for the faint hearted though.
Personally, if I were you I would sell the slim and get an old style ps2. The internal hdd function is great with Hard Drive Advance. I have a 300gb drive in mine and it's great.

If you're after getting your slim chipped, then most certainly get a dms4 chip. It patches the games on the fly

I have a Swap Magic 3.2 to go with my V7 and so far the only game that won't work is GT4 because it's DVD-9. Where I live they want $120cdn for a chip + install, i paid $40cdn for my swap magic and would reccomend it to anyone.
