I want to get a HDD installed on my slimline and would like to know a trustworthy site where i can send mine to get one installed. I have no soldering experience and know better than to attempt this myself. I would really like to have the hdcombo installed but i can't seem to find a place to purchase one. I would prefer to use a ide connection rather than the usb connection. I don't care if its just the hard drive connection cable sticking out. I also don't know what version my slim is since i have a red and silver case on it. I did purchase it last year around thanksgiving if that could help anyone tell me what version it is. It also does not have the phone line connection. I am desperately seeking a solution after spending countless hours searching for a answer. I don't mind if it's a person just as long as they can do it without screwing up my slimline. Thank you in advance. Any help is appreciated.

your slimline ps2 CANNOT have a ide harddrive, seeing that you gout it last year. only v12 and v13 can have the hdcombo. you have to use the usb hdd and hdadvanced/usbextreme.

i can't give any results on that, because i have a v7 with hdloader 0.8b and the memory card exploit.

you will have to find a .elf of hdadvanced or usbextreme for the matrix infinity.

but from lots of reading, using a usb hdd is very slow in loading times, due to the psp using usb1.1
