Help a Newbie mod ps2

[Warlock]

Your best bet is to sell the v1 and get a newer model, v5 or better. The console may play originals and movie's fine but still not play dvd-r media. I know this is not what you want to hear but its better to sell it than it is to mod it and find out it dont play dvd media no matter how much you adjust the laser. Then you are back to square one.If you still want to try it go ahead, its up to you but i dont mod anything older than a v5. Good luck with your decision.
