Power / Reset Button The mushy lid switch had to go and was replaced with a tactile push button. When using the lid switch, the unit would sometimes reset if you simply bumped the console — very annoying. This particular board still had the lid switch present, so I was able to simply remove it...

The Trim - GASP!! This post isn’t really part of the worklog — it’s more of a public service announcement, and maybe a little bit of me tooting my own “I’m so awesome, this is what I do” horn… lol. Besides the fact that this build removes the optical drive, it also trims off a USB port. That...

The FBD008-Ultra — Defining the Build This build started when I had the opportunity to put together an Ultra Slim PS2 for someone and realized it would be the perfect excuse to finally attempt a fully internal SD2PSX build. The project began modestly enough: I sold a prepped SCPH-79001 board on...

Sony actually removed those components/traces from the newer PS2 models, specifically the Deckard revisions (SCPH-75xxx through 90xxx). Yeah, this is the thread to watch!!

@GorGylka well done, your work was posted in #news over at the PS2 Scene discord!!!
