Solder type and switch

what type of solder should I use to install the modchip, and where can i find information on installing a switch? I ordered a magic 3.6 but kind of regret it after finding this site post-order and learning of the messiah 2. Oh well, it's for the first PS2 release anyways. Thanks for the info.

Yeah it is supported but the v1 lasers were really sh*tty and can have problems reading backups.
