From the posts replies in this thread, it would appear that v7 is the best choice.

It may work, but I think you'll agree you just shouldn't have to do such a thing. Sony should be ashamed of themselves for producing those cheap crap drive assemblies

Well, at present they are but they r gettin a bit old now. It used to be v5's that were the best but as they get old the CDR reading capabilities get dodgy so as v7's get older i suspect a weakness will show through. (If u look on kelcoo there is a website that still sells new v7 PS2's)
To be honest if yr buying a new PS2 u have to go for the latest version (10) simply because of the extras thrown in it(Quieter,built in IR reciever etc), however the first thing I would do is carry out the romeo mod! Regards

So to have a decent V9 system we need to:
- Adjust the POT to 1200 ohms or about -15% - Fix the Cogs from moving - Fix tension on worm gear arm - Romeo Mod for safe LA voltage There’s also another Mod I’ve been doing to minimize dust from blowing through the drive assembly.Going to check them for dust in a few months to see how good it’s working.

No, just the romeo mod. Very simple to do. The crap lasers are a 50/50 thing. Some have good ones, some have bad depending on what batch yr ps2 comes from. had to recal my v9 laser after 9 months but was just a height adjustment and it works fine again now (mine has the crap laser fitted). Would definitely carry out romeo mod though!

I’ve never personally come across a burned LA chip myself but I’ve had to do all those other things on many V9 stations.

Still keeping an eye on my v9
Looks to be a heat issue with my v9. I moved it to another location and blow a regular fan on it. This is so lame that these ps2's are so touchy that I have to resort to this. Could be more in addition to that though. Thank you ynos for the cheap parts!
