Hooking up PS2 to my computer questions

[Mr_Lunchbox]

My car was broken into the other day, and all my CDs were stolen, among other things. So now, I've decided I'm not going to keep the original CDs in there anymore. I'm just going to make copies and keep those in my car.

The point? I don't have a second CD drive, and I was wondering if I could turn my PS2 into one.

I notice the USB jack in the front. If I get a USB cable to go from the PS2 and my computer, would my computer recognize it as an external CD drive? Thus, being able to read data off of the CDs so I could just copy the CD easily?

I'm just doing this for music CDs. I only have a CD burner, and I don't even have a DVD drive at all.

I wouldn't need any mod chips for this to work, would I?

I'd have tested this myself by now, but I don't have a proper USB cable, so I wanted to see if this'd work before I went out and bought one for no reason.
