How to tell a version 10.
Hi, Hi there. Just a quicky. Is there any way to tell a version 10 without actually opening the box and checking out what version dvd driver is in the firmware?

Was lookin at pickin up an Aqua ps2. R all of these version 10's?

Thanx in adavance

I'm not sure how it is in the UK but here in the US V9's have a date code of 3B, 3C, and even 4A. The V10's have a date code of 3D. But like I said this might not mean a thing in the UK.

No no, I knew that one, what I'm saying, and maybe I didn't make it too clear, but he has to open the box to find that out...

You should know me better than that

LOL!!

k. Wasn't there something about the packaging as well. Like the version 9 comes in polystyrene and the version 10 comes in cradboard inserts or sumfing similar?

Thanx for replies so far!

Am also lookin at installin a matrix infinity rather than an M2 v2. Is this a wise move in yr opinion?

Once again I'm not sure if this is true in the UK, but yeah, in the US V9's are packaged in Styrofoam while V10's are packaged in card board.

As to the Infinity vs. M2, go with the Infinity you will be very happy. The Infinity is quickly becoming my favorite chip to install in ALL versions of the PS2.
