The +r format disks work well on V5, V6 and V7 machines although the -r disks generally are the better format to use. The popular recorders on this forum are the pioneer dvr-105 and the sony dru-500a, the sony burner does both formats. Not sure about the verbatim burner or the hp, don't know enough about them.

$15.15 is about £10 but I dont know about the shipping

I have got a V4 no solder chip its OK but it wont play DVD rips and some imports to messiah is the best to get if you can get someone to fit it

Yes they have, some people claim the v5/6 no solder works fine.
I've got v7 no solder from www.easybuy2000.com which works fine.

But beware, if you have a v7 machine you CANNOT use the gameshark/action replay 2 to do the dvdr swap. The version 7s know that the drive is fooled.
The only way to boot dvdrs is using the swap magic 2 discs.
And these have limitations to which games can be booted. Look for my previous post named something like nosolder ver 7 swap magic.

Personally, i'd get a messiah2 installed in the version 7. Then that'l be the daddy of your ps2 family!!!
