I'm assuming your asking which mod to get to use swapmagic. If you dont mind spending a bit more then get a fliptop.

sorry i think your meaning to do with swap magic, if you have a old ps2 then use slide tool or if you have slimline get magic keys or use a flip top if you wanna void your warranty.

@Russki Just noticed your sig, you want the MI Green Dot, not the Blue Dot. The Green Dot is compatllbe with v.14 PS2's, the Blue Dot has been discontinued.

If you're interested in a modchip saaw, read my modchip FAQ. It covers the good chips, and the pros and cons of different PS2 backup methods.

5. Q. What modchip should I get?
A. Matrix Infinity (Green Dot), DMS 4 Pro SE, or the Crystal Chip 1.1.
Read My ModChip FAQ: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/304534

A modchip is the best backup solution, however, it costs more than Swap Magic. If you want to be able to to play your backup games like originals, get a chip. If a money's an issue, look into Swap Magic. You can get a quality chip for $115 (installation+chip+shipping). You can pick up Swap Magic and a Flip Top for $30. A flip top is easier to use, and a better solution.

7. Q. What do I need to use Swap Magic?
A. With fat PS2 v.1-11: Flip top: http://www.chipzone.com/installation/playstation2/fliptop/page1.cfm
Slide Card: http://www.saveware.com/SlideCardUsageAndInstall.htm
With Slim PS2 v.12-14
Flip top: http://www.chipzone.com/installation/playstation2/fliptop/page1.cfm
Magickeys (also referred to as slide tool, slim tool or, magic switch): http://magickeys.net/
Ghost Switch: http://www.saveware.com/GhostSwitchInstall.htm
Tape and Tissue mod: From Pretense: If the fliptop doesn't work, just give up on it and do a tape and tissue mod. Open up your case again and tape the back sensor (toward the upper left and beneath the hinge part of the lid) with duct tape or even regular Scotch tape (I use several layers to be on the safe side), put the case back together, and stuff a small ball of tissue into the hole for the front sensor (lower right just above the power button).

my tape and more tape

Just about the same, just a change on Censor 'A' and Censor 'B'

Censor B - http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/572/dsc010703xc.jpg
keep the top closed, while you tape down the disk stopper, using a few layers of duct tape
Fur
Censor A - http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/4342/dsc010698we.jpg
use tiny strips of duct tape to patch over the tiny censor. I used a screwdriver to help put on the tape.
