It's not legal and it will void your warranty. There are several modding methods from chipping the console to swap cards, and the ever so ugly flip top (which turns your fat PS2 into a flip top contraption instead of the motorized disc tray). I have a HDD from FFXI and I use that 100 gigs to store my legally purchased imported games on it. I'm not gonna speak of the specifics as that is illegal.

can you play FFXI on a modded console? I thought you had to use a pay server which would then recognize the modification

If you do it right then yes, you can play FFXI on a chipped PS2. The most legal way to play import and backups is Swap Magic . You don't even need to void your warranty to use it.

I won't mod mine since I have no need to, but it is possible.
