MrMattperreault's video: PiS2 Slim Project - Fix your PS2 Slim s DVD drive replace it with a Raspberry Pi and Play Backups

In this video tutorial I will show you how I saved my PS2 Slim with a dead DVD drive. I watched a few great videos from Macho Nacho about how to use a Raspberry Pi to play backups, I also saw a video he created where they created a PS2 Mini. I combined these two ideas to 3D print a new Top Case for my PS2 Slim to hold the Raspberry Pi in place of the DVD drive. This tutorial walks you through the entire process in 5 parts. Part 1. Set up the Pi Part 2. Set up the Thumb Drive with Backups Part 3. 3D Print and Assembly Part 4. Set up FreeMCBoot (FMCB) Part 5. Set up Open PS2 Loader (OPL) // DOWNLOADS Here are links to everything you'll need to download for this tutorial.
