There are a few v4's that will read dvd+r but even so would stick to the -r media. |

another thing i was wondering about. i was thinking of trading in my v4 for a slim ps2, now should i mod a slim ps2 or just use the swap trick, seems like the swap magic would be easier with the flip top cant really cause harm. seems like theres more risks modding a slim ps2 than a fat one. all the chips i see for the slim come with another chip for the laser?

You really dont want to start messing around with all that TOC swapping nonsense...
Newer slim PS2s prove to be fairly reliable units these days - just make sure you install a good quality modchip such as the Matrix Infinity or one of the Crystal line of chips along with the Comsoft V4 laser chip. (steer clear of the Diode/Neo fixes etc). Do that, and you'll have no problems... LUFCfan
