I was thinking about doing this mod to play my PS1/PS2 backups, but everything I have seen on it here or anywhere has all said that it will cause your PS3's laser to burn out or whatever. Is that true? Id like to do this mod but I dont think it is even worth it if it will eventually destroy my 500$ toy. Thanks for the tips/info everyone.

If you look on the sticky it should have the answers.
But i asked this question in it before and was told that yes it will burn out your ps3 laser very quickly if you switch the games too quickly.
Meaning if you swap to a ps2 game immediately after you have played a ps3 game it will cause it to burn.
I was told that you need to wait at least 8 minutes each time you swap switch.
