dont get one. the are pieces of crap.
i think charlie_ps2 will agree  eh mate? hehebasically what it is, is there is a hole in the top of the ps2, so instead of using the Knife trick or the LH method, you just open up the lid and take out the disc. its dumb though, because 100% of rips wont work, unless you apply no-mod patches, and there are even tons of CD games that wont work. its really only for newbs that will only play DVD-R. a modchip is a MUCH better solution.

I am mainly looking to play DVD-R games. I already have a mod chip installed that will play everything else. I have removed my cover before and you still can get to the disc. Do you have to remove more screws once the lid is off.

u obviously haven't seen the lids themselves.
Seriously the best advice u will get is to get a messiah or a clone installed, dont stress about the current chip u have just save up and get it sorted properly. If u play games as much as I do u will get very sick of the swaps very quickly Full no swap chip installed is the same as like 2 1/2 retail games. U DO THE MATH! LK

they are quite good and cheap
you have to remove your ps2 top (8 screws) being careful not to tear the ribbon cable to the eject/reset and remove your dvd drive top (4 screws) fit the flip lid, it opens to allow you to put backups directly onto the dvd player boot up the games with swap magic 2 boot disks 1 to boot dvd-r 1 to boot cdr (TOC limit applies to dvd to cdr rips

There have been numerous reports about the problems that the swap magic discs are having....... My advice: Get a direct boot chip such as the Messiah 2 and by-pass all the other BS.......

What? More problems with Messiah 2. I think not. The only time when there are problems with the Messiah 2 is when an install goes bad.

And the cost??????? it may be cheaper to buy a no solder & swap magic disc but add on a flip lid case and it no longer is a realistic alternative!

I can't believe that anyone these days would consider any other mod than a no-swap mod.
The idea of modding is to get yr backups to run with the least amount of effort and Messiah does that. No-solder mod is bad. Flip top is worse!!!! Messiah 2 Rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It as simple as that. No other mod is worth considering and NO SOLDER MOD DOES NOT RULE except in agrivation wen u start finding games that won't boot.
