yeah my main goal was to connect a blue retro ESP32 to the PS2, but every guide is for a slim, not fat
so im basically trying to translate this guide to a PS2 fat. They used the USB as a power source

the top assembly also looks virtually identitcal to my PS2, so it could just be the same disc drive.

It’s something to do with this white piece right here. It’s keeping the disc drive jammed. Top swap loader helping me troubleshoot lol

It seems a lil messed up. If I just put discs in it it’s fine, but if I jiggle the drive tray a lil it does this
