    it's a sign of either maintenance needed on the lens itself (good ol' alcohol rub) or the laser being on it's way out. Half Life is an early PS2 game, still on a CD, not a DVD. I've had 2 fat PS2s not reading CDs or PS1 discs. Cleared both and they played well. Didn't like scratched CDs much but that's to be expected, I've seen mad damage on PS1 discs.

    Due to the sound I can hear, it's the clip that connects the dvd reader to the motor track to move it back and forth. The grinding sound is the motor trying to move the laser to another part of the disk extremely fast and resulting in the clip slipping off the track. I've fixed this issue 3 times in my current PS2.

    If you hated replacing the fan, you'll absolutely despise replacing the clock battery. You have to take off all the shielding on the motherboard to replace a 2032 battery. Also, 700mb for the OPL partition is NOT enough if you plan on having box art for all your games. Once it fills up, OPL refuses to save settings (because there's no storage left). It did this to me after about 100 games, and when you realize how good the PS2 library is, 100 isn't a lot.

    Here in Brazil, the PS2 is so popular that to this day, you can still find stores selling PS2 games. Here we have this thing called "popular market" where people sell everything you can imagine and in every one of these, you can easily find at least 5 people selling a bunch of PS2 games. And thanks to that we got gaming masterpieces like Bomba Patch, GTA São Paulo, GTA Rio de Janeiro, GTA 4 for PS2 and GTA Armageddon. As you can see, people around here loved GTA. If you had a PS2, you were obligated to have at least one GTA. I remember playing the shit out of GTA San Andreas on my PS2, so much so that I had to replace my San Andreas disk at least 5 times. Unfortunately, the disk reador of my PS2 that I had since I was a child broke and I'm too lazy to fix it. Maybe someday I will do it but today is not that day.

    The PS2 actually can do "HD" output! Some games from the very end of the active lifespan of the console support it, too! I think the last Gran Turismo game that was supported on PS2 is one of those games. You do need to get a component AV cable to replace the default composite one in order to get HD output, though.

    I think the reason the fan plug on the noctua was snipped like that is it's a used return to Amazon from another customer and Amazon are notorious for just re-using returns and refunded products. An Amazon worker wouldn't have any idea the fan header was snipped.

    with the network adapter you could run games from a shared folder from your pc, iv set up a raspberry pie as a host and have all my games on it, it's a faster way to load games then off the HD and you can have as much storage as you would want for games and cover art.

    i'v ran into this problem many times, where the CD or DvD dont read. its a give away on how its making that sound when loading, it's skipping on the track. all you got to do is shim the laser track up and add some grease to the track. there is also pots on the laser you can adjust if it still dont read there marked with a C for cd and D for dvd.

    that noctua fan was probably a return that was stocked back as new again. the previous owner probably did some weird cuts to the header to try to make it work for something they wanted to do, but they just returned it instead. amazon sells returns as new products all the time.

    I've modded my ps2 exactly like yours months ago (I'm from France). It was a pain to disassemble it and do the noctua mod (3d printed myself too). The sound from your cd/dvd reader must come from the "loosy" ide cable connected to from mainboard to the lens, it moves the cable as the lens moves to read the cd/dvd and when not reinserted correctly, it can come loose and bring issues. (I dissassembled my ps2 like 5 times until it was right) So only solution : dismantle your ps2 again and only connect your cd/dvd reader while powering on the ps2 until you get it right :D ! Good luck ! Btw, great video, I love your content !

    The PS2 can also do up to 1080i, tho not many games natively support it (the only one i know that does is Gran Turismo 4) but you can force it on any game with the Graphics Synthesizer Mode Selector tool.

    That is upscaled 1080i and not native, but it does look fairly good if you use an aftermarket scaler with deinterlacing software. There are four games in total that can use the high res mode.

    The PS2 is easily my favorite console ever, I mowed lawns all summer to save up for one when I was 14. Man, let me tell you...booting up Jak and Daxter for the first time was mind blowing. The leap in graphics from the 5th gen to the 6th gen was insane. I remember playing Dead or Alive on an Xbox demo kiosk, and I was amazed by the snow on the ground. When your fighter moved around it actually created tracks in the snow.

    @23:22 I have a game called Star Wars Episode II Pod Racer, it literally did the same because it is a Blue disc. It did the same with both the FAT and Slim version. Anything other than a normal disc from my experience it gets angry for sure and denied the read from time to time. It has something to do with the laser trying to get a focus lock and failing miserably most of the time. That is where the grinding sound comes into play. Also, the reason is because it has to spin faster and thus due to the mounts holding the laser assembly or spindle, it vibrates due to the increased speed.

  • @kendrakirai

    The 2.5" drive caddy is just supposed to hold it so that it doesn't droop, and put stress on the connectors, there's no other need for it. It doesn't need to *mount* anything, just keep it from hanging there. Though you CAN mount it to the adapter itself, which becomes all the actual mounting you need.
