PS2 Ultra Slim Project: Hardware Modding & Shrinking the Console

In this video, I’m showing you the full process of building a PS2 Ultra Slim! By removing the DVD drive and using a custom shell, I managed to make the PlayStation 2 smaller than ever. This mod features SD card loading (MX4SIO/OPL) and a much more compact design. 3D PRINT FILES: I will be uploading the 3D model files very soon! Please note that there are two separate 3D designs available, specifically optimized for two different motherboard revisions. Stay tuned for the download links.
