Sony PlayStation 1 (PSone / PS) - Slot Loading Drive in Progress 1

The Sony PlayStation 1 Slot Loading Drive modification by Haunted360.

Hopefully, it will work out :S

Expect it for sale as soon as im done.

It is compatible with all PlayStation consoles. Yes, even the PSone. So if you have a PS Portable you have built, you can now fit it with a SLD (Slot Loading Drive) to make it thinner.


More information about the drive modification, can be found here:
http://www.haunted360.com/development-playstation-sld.html


I know someone else has made this, but he just dremeled the heck out of the metal case and shoved in the original laser deck assembly. As a test, mine is using the actual components of the original SLD deck. If it fails, I will do it by just adding the deck in. The only thing I am changing at this point, is the motor and the laser.

This is a WIP (Work in Progress) anyway at this stage so nothing has been confirmed yet.


This is the German guys version

This is original PSX lens?? Or do you insert pc cd drive??

[Haunted360]

@Cyva1996 I insterted PC cd drive. But, it did not work... It is too hard to get the distance right for the laser diode to focus. So, instead I will just replace the motor. I have it working at the moment, but I am just doing tests on it to make sure it will not break.

your webpage could take some advantage on "be up to date"...

and i have gotten in contact with the german modder for the slot in drive mod before.

he still has got it and doesnt want to sell it.

i am modding to on ps1, but not to play, only audiophil and an slot in drive made out of the original drive would be awesome :)

[Haunted360]

@daniel070487 yea, it is hard to keep it updated. It is not a blog really, but all HTML hardcoded in. The German modder does not want to sell it, and he said in the end he just managed to get it running hanging by a thread. lol. As an Audiophile player then, it would be top to have! Expect the SLD drive soon...

@Haunted360

when you get it runnning, message me ;)

# The playstation SCPH-1000, -1001 and -1002 as an audiophile player costs much moddingtime and audiophile tuning.

Mostly caused by the expensive audiophile caps and elkos from audiophile professional labels like Mundorf or Furutech or Dynavox.

Maybe we could make an arrangement, you give me the plans for the slot-in when you'll get it to work, i'll give you the plans for audiophile tuning ;)

[Haunted360]

@daniel070487 Sure! I am all for it. I have a SCPH-1002, so I will test it on that after I test it on a 5502. I plan to only make 5 of these drives, as I need to focus on my other project. I will keep one, installed in a console, so 4 really. Unless someone buys the console one day...
