FileForums - PS1 no mods backups!

Hi all
Before anyone gets the idea i'm a sneaky downloader i'm not(LOL)
i have quite a large library of original psx games but for about 3 years i havent had a ps1,anyway now my kids are a little older i thought i'd buy them a small ps1(unchiped obviously) it cost £13
Since my kids are terrible at looking after cd's i want to back them all up and thats about 20 games.
I read about a CD that was free and downloadable that booted and then asked for another cd which then accepted backups.
It claims you need ezcd creator 2.1 to get it to work,i tried it with discjuggler and it didn't work.
So the question is has anyone got this cd to work and also what is the actual difference between the original ps1 and the mini ps1? can they be chipped the same.or would the bootdisk not work on one but the will on the other?

Thanks all
