what is a swap disc

[trooper5358]

hi sorry about this but i ve heard of a disc that you can use to play backed up ps2 games,without it being chipped.im wondering is this it(swap) or something else.if this isnt it ,what is it where would i get one,if any one could help that would be great,because im lost.

It may not be what you want to hear but my advice is to forget the swap magic disc and just get a no swap chip. To load games with these cd's you must cram a card into the console to make the tray eject or have a no solder mod. It will not load games by itself. By the time you buy this crap you could geta real modchip like the Duo2 se. If not and your set on buying this swap disc crap you can find them all over the net....good luck.

my opinion
Swapdisk = Garbage

thanks for taking the time to answer my question,so if i was going for this mod chip which one would i go for,where would i get it and how do you fit it.thanks once again to anyone who answers.

it kinda depends on what model of PS2 you have...new slimline version = (v12), satin silver = v9, read the stickies if you have troiuble identifying the model of your PS2.

As for the modchip, Matrix Infinity, Crystal, Ghost are very popular choices, Duo2 SE is another popular choice for some of the more aged versions of the unit, i've always enjoyed the reliability of the Messiah 2 personally, but it depends on what chip features you require.

If you just wanna boot backups plain an simple, any of the above would do you proud, maybe even consider the Magic chip for simplicity and cost effectiveness.

the choice is yours my friend, good luck
