slide card and boot disk arrived yesterday and works perfectly. you have to remove the front of the cd tray of the PS2 (1 screw) to use it.

to play a backup etc, just boot up with the boot disk, use the card to eject the tray and lock it again after swapping with your backup. its a very quick procedure and other than maybe wearing the motor out a little early on the machine it seems to be flawless.

cheapest seems to be here http://www.saveonnet.com/shop/index.php?action=item&substart=0&id=122&PHPSESSID=d3c643b184773feb0a471bf7ff972157

with current exchange rates etc, works out bout €25 inc shipping
