I am buying a PS2 at the end of this month, and I would like to know the best tools for backing up my games as I buy them. I am getting the PS2 from EB, so I assume it would be the newest model, since they sell so many they must constantly restock. I have noticed that ritek dvd-r's seem to be the media of choice, but I dont know which burner is a good one to pick up. Also, I would like to know a good usb modchip, and the things neccesary to use it. Sorry if these questions get asked very often, but im new to this, and if I get a bad result from this, I sure as hell wont ask again in a few days.
